(picture book for children-folk)

Ok, so I started this picturebook a few years ago... but I don't remember the details of what happens up on the beanstalk. Anyone want to help with this? Here's what I got so far. (Ceiva is a company I used to work for. I put their name on it to justify wasting a day playing in paint instead of working one day).

I just wondered... why? I mean, hasn't this story been done before? Where's the HOOK...? :D

PS Don't forget about the goose that lays the golden eggs that Jack steals from the giant. Oh, and the classic line "fee, fie, foe, fum..."

The unfashionable end of the western spiral arm of
We could critisize Clary all day (I've done it, it's fun :D)

But this gives me an idea for new sticky up there with the Family Album:

"The Fridge"

Y'know, like you stick your kids paintings on the fridge? Well, theres an awful lot of parents here who are all gushy over their spawn...

Just a thought.

This story clearly needs some work, sir. I mean, there's just not enough motivation, you know. And the characters just ANNOUNCE what they're feeling -- there's no subtlety. That makes me so, so... so frustrated.
