A Handful Of Beans - Jack lived with his mother in a very small cottage. This tiny dwelling had no furniture except one wooden stool and a rickety table, so Jack and his mother had to sleep on the floor. They were very, very poor, and their life was dismal and uncomfortable. When their old cow Bessie had to be sold Jack sets out for the market, without an inkling of the wondrous adventures that can arise from a handful of beans.
In this fairy tale world YOU decide what will happen next. The possibilities open up before you: Will Jack sell the cow for a handful of beans? Will he become a prince or a priest, or run away to sea?
Jack may find a giant's mansion, encounter a wizard, meet a scarecrow or be thrown into a vile dungeon.
With over 20 possible endings this is a story to be read again and again.
Handheld Computing declared "...the wry, tongue-in-cheek humour will keep you coming back for more."
