Jack and the Beanstalk

"Time to escape," thought Jack. He clambered out of the teapot and dropped down, just by the giant's hand. The little hen stood trembling by her gold eggs. Jack grabbed the hen, slid down the tablecloth and raced through a crack under the door. Agiant dog barked loudly but Jack kept running. He heard the Jiant's angry roar and ran even faster.

I played the boy who was in this story when I was a child. I remember I held a chicken.
