Traditional Tales...

Jack and the Beanstalk


Once upon a time, there was a boy called Jack. He lived
with his mother and they had a cow.

One day, Jack’s mother asked him to take the cow to


market to sell. Jack met a man, who gave him some
magic beans for the cow.

When Jack came home, his mother was angry. She threw
the beans out and sent him to bed. The next morning, a
giant beanstalk had grown! Jack climbed it.

When Jack reached the top, he saw a castle and


went inside. Jack heard a loud noise and hid. An
enormous giant came into the room with a hen and
a golden harp. He shouted, “Lay!” and the hen laid
an egg. Then “Sing!” and the harp sang. The giant fell asleep.

Jack took the hen and the harp. The harp shouted
and the giant woke up. He chased Jack down the
beanstalk. Jack shouted, “Help!” Jack’s mother came
out and chopped the beanstalk down with an axe.
The giant fell to the ground. He was never seen again.

Jack and his mother lived happily ever after.
