In my opinion this is a great book. I love how this book is a shorter version of the traditional story of Jack and the magic Bean. I loved the writing in this story and how it is written in a rhyming ABC style. This book would be very helpful for first of second graders to learn about poem and also read a classic folk tale. In addition this book has great illustrations. Even thought some of the words are very hard to read , I think that if you are a kindergarten teacher you can simply use the big illustrations when telling the story. The main idea of this book is to tell the folk tale of Jack and the magic bean but using a poem to engage the children more to find rhyming words. A really fun book to read.
Jack's mother found a sixpence and sent him to buy a goose in the fair. Instead of buying a goose that would be his dinner he got tricked into buying a bean that was supposed to be magic. Is mother was mad that he did not listen to her. Jack planted the bean in his garden and in the morning there was a huge bean stalk. He climbed up and what he found was a grand place. When he knocked on the door there was a damsel beautiful lady but jack still wanted to come in and see the giant she spoke of. As soon as the giant walked in the smelled Jack but the maid tricked him into drinking his wine first so he would fall asleep. As soon as he fell asleep, Jack chopped off the giants head and brought his mother up to dine that amazing food. Jack got married with the beautiful maid and lived very happy. I love how this story is different from other stories I have read about Jack and the bean stalk. This is also a wonderful example of a folklore story to share with the children.
