From the writer of 'The Midnight Caller' and a finalist for the 2012 'Best and Brightest' competition comes a spell binding fantasy retelling of the classic fairytale 'Jack and the Beanstalk'. Journey into the world of 'The Beanstalk', a young adult fantasy in the tradition of Neil Gaiman and Robin Mckinley. Jack, a bored and unhappy fourteen year old girl meets a mysterious woman who gives her a seemingly ordinary garden bean.
Jack plants the bean, and it grows into a beanstalk, unnaturally fast and unnaturally big. Stepping through the strange structure, she finds herself in another world, another universe. Now she is drawn into a place of magic and danger. A place where frightened villagers will not go out after dark, where there are no stars and very few people. A world ruled by the powerful and terrifying Giant.
