This proposal is for a graphic novel that retells the classic story of Jack and the Beanstalk over 4 pages with a modern twist. Photographs taken by the author and edited to look like comic book panels will illustrate the story, which will include minimal text. The graphic novel aims to appeal to older children between 10-15 years old by keeping the basic plot but updating details like the Giant having an afro and Jack trading a dog instead of a cow for the magic beans.
