Once upon a time, there was a poor widow who had an only son named Jack. They were so poor that
they didn’t have anything except a cow. When the cow had grown too old, his mother sent Jack to the
cattle market to sell it. On the way to the market, Jack met a butcher who had some beautiful beans in
his hand. The butcher told the boy that the beans were of great value and persuaded the silly offer to
sell the cow for the beans.

Jack brought them happily. When he told his mother about this, his mother became so angry and she
threw the beans out of the window. When Jack woke up in the morning, he felt the sun shining into a
part of his room but all the rest was quite dark and shady.

So he jumped to the window. What did he see? The bean stalk grew up quite close past Jack’s window.
He opened the window and jumped to the bean stalk which ran up just like a big ladder. He climbed….
and climbed till at last he reached the sky. While looking around, he saw a very huge castle. He was very
amazed.

The Jack walked along the path leading to the castle. There was a big tall woman on the doorstep. Jack
greeted her and asked for the giantess’ mercy to give him breakfast because he was very hungry.
Although the giantess grumbled at first, finally she gave Jack a hunk of bread, cheese and a jug of milk.

Jack hadn’t finished when the whole house, began to tremble with the noise of someone’s coming. “Oh!
It’s my husband!” cried the giantess. “What on earth shall I do?”

Hastily the giantess opened a very big cupboard and hid Jack there.
