I read the book named “Jack and the Beanstalk” today. “Jack and the Beanstalk” is well-known fairy tale around the world. In Japan, it is famous as “Jack to mamenoki”. I knew this story too, and I had watched the video of “Jack and the Beanstalk” when I was a nursery school student. But I forgot the contents of this story. So I thought that I toyed with the idea of read this book. This book is very long and it was a difficult for me a bit.
This story was One day, Jack went to sell his cow to the market because he and his mother were very poor. But he traded off between his caw and beans of a man who met on the way. When he came back his house, his mother angry and she threw the beans into the garden. Next morning, when he woke up, the beans grew up a big tree reaching up to the sky. Jack was very surprised. Jack climbed the beanstalk and he made it to the terrifying giant’s castle in above clouds. When he went into the castle, giant’s wife was there. And she said that her husband is cannibal so he had to run a mile soon. but at that time, the giant came home. Giant’ wife hid jack but giant said that he smelled the blood of a little man. After the giant slept, he nicked out of giant’s hen that lays the golden eggs. After that, he climbed the beanstalk again. And he tried to nick out of giant’s harp but he got noticed by giant and giant pursued him. He descended to the ground, fell the beanstalk and the giant fell out of the tree and dead. Jack and his mother who became rich lived happily ever after.
I read this book, and I thought that was it story like this? I had forgotten this story. So I am glad to read for a long time. I had forgotten that Jack stole hen and harp from the giant. I was surprised. It was very interesting story.(355words)
