    they reached the house the mouse nibbled a hole in the door and they got in.The mouse and the bee went into the bedroom.They bit one of the giant's ears and the bee stung his nose.Then the two giants jumped out of bed and one of them hit the other and killed him.Then the two giants fell dead on the floor.Then the boy went home to tell the king and asked him for his farm and fifty cows.The boy went home and all the people came to thank him.All the people lived happy ever after.
