Jack and the Beanstalk July 6, 2008

Jack and the Beanstalk is a fairytale of magic and myth; of courage and bravery. Forced to sell off his closest friend, Dolly the cow, Jack receives two small but magical beans from a peddler as payment for Dolly. Jack plans to use the magic produced by the beans, to buy Dolly back and rescue his family from poverty. When his mother finds out what he had done, she becomes furious. “How could you!?” she asked, crying and tossing the beans to the ground.

Upon waking the next morning, young Jack is surprised to see a mighty beanstalk reaching high beyond the clouds. He is determined to climb to the land of the giant, retrieve all his family’s belongings, including his father’s gold and set things right.
