Good Enough to Eat by Brock Cole

From chapters.ca:
"Once there was a poor girl who had no mama and no papa and nothing at all, not even a name." But then one day an Ogre comes knocking at the town's gate, threatening to ravage the town unless the townspeople give him one of their fair maidens. Of course they pick this poor girl to be sacrificed. They dress her in a gown and a paper crown, put her in a sack, and leave her for the Ogre. But this brave and clever girl manages to outwit the Ogre and all the townspeople, too. This satisfying story has the feel of a classic fairy tale, brought to life by Brock Cole's expressive watercolours.
