Mighty Jack
by Ben Hatke
This is an interesting play on Jack and the Beanstalk. Jack takes care of his autistic younger sister Maddie while his single mom struggles to pay the bills. When Maddie talks one day at a flea market, Jack ends up trading the family car for some magic seeds. These seeds are mysterious plants, seemingly from another world. But Maddie loves them, so Jack is reluctant to ruin the garden.
I enjoyed this one. The take on the original tale is fun, and I am excited to see where the cliffhanger ending takes us.
