  2. The Giant and the Wee Fellow

    Share Share Post
    One time there was a big giant who lived in a castle and there was a wee fellow who was always crying. And any body who said they could fight the giant would get a lot of money.
    Jack said he could fight him and he dug a hole and put a lock of straw over it and then went up and rang the bell of the castle. The big giant running out fell in to the hole and the wee fellow got all the money.
