When the residents of Hidden Forest wake
up and open their morning papers, they are
in for a surprise. An enormous beanstalk has
mysteriously sprouted outside of Jack Blake’s
house, and Jack is nowhere to be found.
Meanwhile, Pinocchio and Half-Chicken
have set out on adventures of their own, and
Tortoise and Hare are off to the races. Will
they all find their happy endings?
Diario del
Bosque Escondido
has the scoop. Written and
laid out in newspaper format, this installment
in the enchanting Hidden Forest series has
received a new twist from Alma Flor Ada and
Leslie Tryon.

Everyone who’s anyone will be at the Three
Little Pigs’ housewarming party. Goldilocks
and Little Red Riding Hood have already
marked it on their calendars. Unfortunately,
so have the wolves—the ones who caused
the Pigs to have to build their brick house in
the first place! In this wonderfully creative
book, Alma Flor Ada imagines what it would
be like if a few beloved fairy-tale characters
were pen pals. Leslie Tryon’s intricate and
colorful illustrations make the unique
epistolary format fun for young readers.
