Jill e la pianta di fagioli - Jill and the Beanstalk

This is a lively retelling of the old English folk tale, only this time it’s not Jack but his sister is climbing the beanstalk into a new world. She is the one who tricks the wicked ogre and brings home the gold.

… Jill heard a shout, it was her mother! “Come down at once, look after your brother!” But she kept on climbing, she didn’t stop. All the way upwards, right to the top”… To the land of the Giant.
The new version of the old tale is presented here in Italian and English languages side by side, with full-page color illustrations.
