The TumbleBook™ version of the classic tale of Jack, his magic beans, the Ogre, the bags of gold, and the hen that laid the golden eggs.

I know my teacher, Miss Malarkey, lives in our classroom, Room 10. She's there all the time. In fact, all the teachers live at school. They eat dinner in the cafeteria and sleep in the teachers' lounge. I'm sure of it!

So why is Miss Malarkey moving into my apartment house?...

The yawns spread like crazy and inspire ogre hysterics.

Maybe being a pirate isn't so great after all.
