He climbs up to the sky through the clouds. Jack sees a beautiful castle. He goes inside. He sees an enormous giant in one room and a golden harp and a hen on a table.
“Lay!” says the giant. The hen lays a golden egg.
“Sing!” says the giant. The harp begins to sing.
Jack is very surprised.
The giant falls asleep and Jack takes the harp and the hen. Suddenly, the harp sings,”Help, master!”
The giant wakes up and runs to Jack. The boy runs too and climbs down the beanstalk.

The giant comes down after him.
Jack shouts,”Mother! Help!” Jack´s mother takes an axe and chops down the beanstalk.
The giant falls and crashes to the ground and he disappears. Nobody sees him never again.
With the golden eggs and the magic harp, Jack and his mother lives happily ever after.
