    About this ebook

    ISSN: 2397-9607 Issue 339
    In this 339th issue of the Baba Indaba’s Children's Stories series, Baba Indaba narrates the classic Fairy Tale "JACK AND THE BEANSTALK”.

    ONCE upon a time, long, long ago and far, far away, there was a poor widow who lived in a little cottage with her only son Jack. Jack was a giddy, thoughtless boy, but very kind-hearted and affectionate. It had been a long, hard winter, and it didn’t take long for the poor woman to start suffering from fever and ague, which is illnesses involving fever and shivering. As yet, Jack was too young to work, and by degrees the two grew dreadfully poor. The widow saw that there was no means of keeping Jack and herself from starvation but by selling her cow; so one morning she said to her son, "I am too weak to go myself, Jack, so you must take the cow to market for me, and sell her."
    Jack readily agreed and that’s when everything began to go from bad to worse! What happened you ask…? Well many things happened, some silly and some serious and some altogether surprising. To find the answers to these questions, and others you may have, you will have to download and read this story to find out!

    Baba Indaba is a fictitious Zulu storyteller who narrates children's stories from around the world. Baba Indaba translates as "Father of Stories".

    Each issue also has a "WHERE IN THE WORLD - LOOK IT UP" section, where young readers are challenged to look up a place on a map somewhere in the world. The place, town or city is relevant to the story. HINT - use Google maps.
