Jack and the Beanstalk by Joseph Jacobs
"Fee-Fi-Fo-Fum, I smell an exciting story!" When young Jack trades the family cow for a handful of "magic" beans, his mother is so angry she tosses the beans out the window and sends Jack to bed without his dinner. The next morning, a beanstalk has grown up to the sky, leading to one of the classic fairy tale adventures of all time. Performed by Blair Mellow.

Henny Penny by Joseph Jacobs
The sky is falling and Henny Penny and all her friends are running off to tell the king. Can they really trust Foxy Loxy to show them the way? Performed by Catherine Lutz.

Lazy Jack by Joseph Jacobs
While it is proper to refer to Jack as lazy, it would also be true to refer to him as not very bright. The comical ways he finds to bring home each day's pay make for quite an entertaining taleâand good fortune for Jack as well! Performed by James Mio.

The Story of Humpty Dumpty by L. Frank Baum
Humpty Dumpty, an Egg of remarkable size, has left the nest and gone out to see the world. This classic nursery rhyme, re-told by the creator of The Wizard of Oz, is sure to be a favorite of everyone who ever wondered how Humpty Dumpty got up on that wall in the first place. Performed by David DuChene.
