This story is called Jack and the Beanstalk, a traditional tale adapted and recorded by LibraryCall. Once upon a time, there was a poor boy named Jack who lived with his mother and their cow named Milky-white. Jack and his mother relied completely on the cow’s milk as their only source of food and income. But one morning Milky-white gave no milk, and they didn't know what to do. “Don’t worry, mother, I'll go and find work somewhere,” said Jack. “There are no jobs to be found,” said his mother. “I’m afraid we must sell Milky-white.” “Okay,” said Jack sadly.
