Jack and the Beanstalk — questions and answers
What is "Jack and the Beanstalk" about?
Three magic beans, a beanstalk to the clouds, and a sky garden that needs saving. In MeStory's personalised edition you are the hero of all 24 pages. The book opens: The cow had stopped giving milk, and the cupboard at your hero's house had nothing left but crumbs. "Take her to market," said Mum, "and bring back whatever coins you can." On the road, an old trader smiled. "No coins," he said, "but I have three beans that remember the sky."
What happens in the middle of "Jack and the Beanstalk"?
Halfway through the book the adventure turns: But the sky garden was grey. Giant leaves drooped, and nothing was growing at all. A golden hen the size of a pony sat beside a cracked fountain. "No water," she clucked, "no life." The castle door was tall as a hill, and your hero pushed it open with both hands.
How does "Jack and the Beanstalk" end?
It closes gently, ready for bedtime: The giant filled your hero's arms with golden pods and lowered the small hero gently to the beanstalk. And forever after, green vines grew round the little cottage — and far above, a giant was tending his garden again.

Ages 4–9. It is a 24-page picture book with one or two short sentences per page, written to be read aloud in about ten minutes at bedtime.
