Winter Newsletter 2023 Early Graphic Novels

Estella wants a bedtime story of epic proportions and her dad, Andrew, is happy to oblige. This particular night he makes the story of Jack and the Beanstalk his own, twisting it to hilarious effect as a search for hot dogs. Estella’s enthusiasm, a fox named Wendy, and a lot of tongue-in-cheek humor will draw you back to this graphic novel again and again. For fans of Fitz & Cleo and tall tales.

Ari Stocrate’s Sally and Bean jump from the page to deliver a fun, whimsical adventure for early readers to enjoy!
