The Princess and the Giant

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Sarah Warburton. Young Sophie is kept awake at night by the giant up the magic bean stalk in her yard, so she reads some fairy tales and hatches a plan. Everything herein is inspired, from the nimble rhymes to the plentiful against-type visual details (the giant wears bunny slippers) to Sophie's epiphany about the giant's insomnia: he just needs a bedtime story.
