Once upon a time, there was a little boy named Jack who lived with his mother and only his mother. Unfortunately, they lived under very poor and sad conditions.







2

The reason for the sad conditions that Jack and his mother occupied was due to the simple notion that neither of them had a source of income. In fact, the only thing they owned was one dairy cow.




3
One day, Jack's mother came to a possible resolution to their sad lifestyle. Her plan was to have Jack sell their Dairy Cow to a tradesmen in the local town center. So she told him about it.





4
Jack thought her plan was a good idea, so the next morning, bright and early, he went to the nearest town and tried to find someone to sell their Dairy Cow to.


5
After searching for inhabitants in the city, Jack came across a mysterious looking man. Jack approached him and asked him if he'd like to buy a Dairy Cow. He seemed intrigued, but just stared at Jack.



6
After some time passed, the man responded by asking Jack if he would like to trade his dairy cow for some magic beans. Jack did not seem all too excited about this offer, especially when the man would not explain what they did.





7
Although Jack was not intrigued by the old man's "magic beans," an unexplainable urge caused Jack to grab the old man's beans right out of his hands and run off.





8
Jack continued to run back to his home with his Dairy Cow, leaving the old man in the dust. Oddly enough, Jack did not seem to have any regret from stealing the beans even though he did not really want them.





9
After a lot of running, Jack made it back to his mother with the magic beans and their dairy cow. Although he was successful in stealing the magic beans, his mother was not very pleased with him.
