Jack and the Beanstalk
Jack and his mother were very poor. All they had was one cow. One day, Jack’s mother said, “Go and sell our cow and bring the money back to me.”
Jack took the cow away to sell. On the way he met a man who wanted to buy the cow.“I have no money,” said the man. “But I will give you five magic beans for your cow.” “All right,” said Jack,
and he gave the man his cow.
Jack took the beans back to his mother. She was very angry. “These beans are no good to us,” she said.
And she threw the beans out of the window.
The next day when Jack woke up, he saw a giant beanstalk outside his window. “I want to climb to the top,”said Jack. Jack started to climb. “NO, Jack, no” siad his mother but Jack climbed up and up to the top of the beanstalk .
When Jack got to the top, he saw a giant house. He opened the door and saw a giant woman. “Oh, no!” siad the woman. “My giant husband is coming. He eats little boys like you!”. The giant man came and the giant woman put Jack into a cupboard .
The giant man sat down with some giant bags of money. He started counting the money with himself. Jack watched him. Soon, the man slept. Jack came out and took all the money. Then, he climbed back down the beanstalk, and gave the money to his mother.
Soon, Jack wanted to climb again. “No, Jack, no!” said his mother. But Jack said, “I must.” When Jack got to the top, he saw the giant woman again. “Oh, no!” she siad. “My husband is angry because someone took his money.” The giant man came and the giant woman put Jack into a cupboard. The giant man sat down. He had a little hen which gave him golden eggs.
Very soon, the man slept. Jack came out and took the little hen. Then, he climbed down the beanstalk.
Soon, Jack climbed again. At the top he saw the giant woman. “Oh, no!” she said.“ My husband is angry because someone took his hen and his money.” The giant man came and the giant woman put Jack into a cupboard. The giant man sat down and the harp started to play beautiful music. Soon, the man slept. Jack came out and took the golden harp. Then, he climbed down the beanstalk. “Go quickly!” said the woman. “My husband is behind you!“
Jack quickly climbed down the beanstalk with the angry giant man. When Jack got to the bottom his mother cut down the beanstalk. And that was the end of the giant man.
At last, Jack and his mother were not poor, and they lived happily for many years.
