Published in 1983, Jack and the Beanstalk is the fourth book I have read from Cauley, following upon her The Town Mouse and the Country Mouse, The Cock, the Mouse and the Little Red Hen, and Goldilocks and the Three Bears. She seems to have created quite a few folk and fairy-tale retellings, which is my primary interest in her work, although her body of picture books includes a number of more contemporary titles as well. In any case, I found this one quite engaging, enjoying both the story (despite finding Jack a bit of a scoundrel, as always) and the accompanying illustrations. The paintings here are done in oil, and are quite lovely. Recommended to young folk and fairy-tale lovers, and to anyone seeking good picture book presentations of this story. ( )
