Jack and the Red Beanstalk by Aphrodyi Antoine

He handles himself so bravely that, in the end, he is rewarded with just the right princess. As in any proper fairy tale, Issun Boshi is tested in several adventures. Because he saw himself as a swordfighter, a samurai, he made sure to take along the right equipment: a needle was his sword, a soup bowl was his boat, and a chopstick was its rudder. He then left his home to set off on a journey to find his place in the world.

Although his parents raised him very lovingly, Issun Boshi realized one day that he would not grow any taller. He was thus called Issun Boshi, Japanese for one-inch boy. When the elderly couple did in fact bear a son, he turned out to be only one inch high. His mother had longed to have a child for so many years that she finally added 'even if it is a very small one' to her wish. Everyday low prices and free delivery on eligible orders.
