Life’s a drag for Jack and his poor mother Widow Neo – the cupboard is bare, there are bills to pay and the loan sharks are circling. With the writing literally on the void-deck walls, they finally resort to selling Ah Kow, their beloved pet cow. But when Jack only gets a handful of green beans instead of cold hard cash for their pet, disaster looms…
That is, until a gigantic bean-sprout springs up in Marina Bay! It reaches high up beyond the clouds, to a mystical land where a man-eating Giant is rumoured to live! Desperate, Jack climbs up the tau geh – to discover danger, adventure and the stirrings of first love.
