""Fee-fi-fo-fummy, I'm always counting money ""
'Jack and his mom run a little cafe, but business has dried up and they're nearly broke. So when Jack comes home with only an old can of baked beans in return for their last few pennies, his mother throws it out the window. Overnight it grows into a gigantic baked beanstalk, which takes Jack to the castle of a giant who spends all his time counting his huge fortune. Jack helps the giant to find something more fun to do, and saves the cafe in the process.' (Publication summary)
