The classic folktale of Jack and the Beanstalk is retold for early readers. When Jack's mother asks him to sell their cow at the market, he trades it for some magic beans instead. His angry mother throws the beans out the window and they grow into a magic beanstalk. When Jack climbs it, he finds a giant who would gladly eat him for supper. When Jack makes off with the hen that lays golden eggs, the giant chases him down the beanstalk. Quickly, Jack chops it down, and that's the end of the giant!
