BR-2 9 Jack and the beanstalk


He looked closer and saw a massive plant, reaching up to the sky.

Jack and the Beanstalk is a British fairy tale. This story is a very famous story that has been film adaptation. Jack and his mom are living poor with cow. However, because there is nothing to eat, he will go to sell cow. They encounter the old man on the way to market. The old man said I want to replace it with magic beans, so he was replaced the cattle and five dried beans. Mother is angry at Jack who took a bean home with not money and throws it away in the garden. So far is the cornerstone of this story.
When he wakes up the next day tree of beans had grown to the sky. He climbed it and enters the castle giant live. He discovers the chicken which was the belonging of his father there. That is hen lays golden eggs. His father was killed in the giant. He brought back the hen on the ground. And I was able to live wealthy thanks to the golden eggs.
This story still continues, he goes to the giants of the house again. I did not know the details of this story. So I knew that father of Jack was killed by a giant and was surprised. And I did not know that the treasure of the giant was the belonging of father either. The contents of this book are short so very recommended for people who want to again read back.
