Zachariah Thumblemyer lived with his mom at the edge of Huckleberry Beach.
Zack was sort of smart but somewhat forgetful, although he never forgot
to ask his mom to read Jack and The Beanstalk. He loved that story and asked
his mom to read it often.
But reading the same story, she became bored.
One hot summer day Zack begged his mom one more time, "Please read
Jack and The Beanstalk?"
"No!" she answered, "Go to
Huckleberry Beach and read it yourself."
Excited, he scooted to Huckleberry Beach and began reading. However a truck unloaded a huge pile of sand beside him.
"Be quiet!" yelled Zack."I'm reading!"
The truck left, but people gathered to build a sandcastle. Zack was in their way, so they yelled,"Quit reading and help us build a sandcastle!"
"I don't know," replied Zack."I'm reading
my favourite story, Jack and the Beanstalk."
"Come on kid! I'll help," yelled a lady with
a bulldozer.
She smiled with a funny kind of smile then continued,"This
beach really needs some magic. I mean sandcastles."
