UP THE DOWN BEANSTALK

There has to be MORE to the story ...

Did you read the story of Jack and the Beanstalk and come away with questions?

How young was he, to believe the beans were magic?

Was he bullied into accepting beans in exchange for the cow?

Was he really that gullible? Was he desperate? Or was magic real in his world?

Why did he think it was smart to climb that beanstalk? How far did he climb?

Why didn't he run when he saw the giants?

What was the giants' side of the story? Were they bullies, or were they the victims of burglars and swindlers?

What about the golden harp and the goose?

On and on, with every answer generating MORE questions..

We invite you into these pages to explore the MORE our authors found. You'll be delighted, enchanted, intrigued, and we hope you'll cheer for our heroes in all their shapes and sizes and motivations.
