"It's that beanstalk again," sighs the giant, sharing his breakfast
of beef and beer with just-arrived Jim: he's no match for his
father who fee-fi-fo-fumed at Jack, and no more than a relic of his
former self. He can't read. . . Jim prescribes glasses; can't chew?
false teeth; bald? a wig. And when he's a new man - 'You'd better
go now and chop that beanstalk down before I crunch you up.' This
is the sort of revival that will delight some people and repel
others - except for the spectacle of Jim carrying the giant
glasses, false teeth and wig through the streets it's no great
shakes either way. (Kirkus Reviews)
In this retelling of the classic children's story by the author/illustrator of Snowman and When the Wind Blows, Jim finds the beanstalk growing outside his window one morning and follows his famous predecessor up to the top.
