I'm not sure why they decided to make the main character a girl, as I'm pretty sure the series appeals to girls and boys, but the updated tale was otherwise well done. This is still one if my favorite graphic novel series for young readers.

I quite liked the premise, but the execution was lacklustre for me. Just not long enough, and not enough trickery on Jack's part.

It's a cute twist on the traditional fairy tale. I personally like how Jack is "Jak", a somewhat sassy girl with punk hair and a couple of earrings. A fun, quick (very short story) read.
