What is Jack and the Beanstalk about?

Jack swaps the family cow for five mysterious beans, but his mother is furious when he brings them home. Overnight, the beans grow into a giant beanstalk reaching high into the clouds. Jack climbs up and discovers a magical castle where a fierce giant lives. With courage and quick thinking, Jack sneaks past the giant, finds a hen that lays golden eggs and a singing harp, then races home before the giant catches him.
