Early one morning, Jim woke up and saw a massive plant growing outside his window . . .
In this re-telling of the classic children's story by author of The Snowman Raymond Briggs, a little boy called Jim finds a beanstalk outside his window one morning. Like his predecessor Jack, he decides to climb it - and at the top, he finds a huge castle and a rather grumpy giant. But this giant isn't at all what Jim expected . . .
This funny and yet heartwarming story showcases the importance of friendship, problem-solving, and above all - kindness.
