Maddy in Candy Land by Mandy 

In a land, far, far away there was a girl named Maddy. She lived with her mother in a rundown cottage because they were really poor. One day they had no food so Maddy's mother said, “go sell the cow Brownie.” So Maddy did. As Maddy was walking on the path she met a magician. He said, “if you give me that cow I will give you these magic beans. They will make you live happily ever after.” Maddy wanted to live happily ever after so she took the beans. When Maddy got home she told her mother all about the magic beans. Her mother thought that Maddy would have been smart enough not to be tricked by the man. Maddy’s mother threw the beans out the window and they both went to bed hungry. Overnight the beans grew up in the sky. In the morning Maddy saw a green tall plant that reached all the way up into the clouds. Maddy changed out of her pyjamas as fast as a cheetah. She ran outside and climbed up the beanstalk. When she got to the top she saw a land full of candy and she named it Candy land. Maddy saw a castle and went in. Inside there was a giant and a duck that laid golden eggs. Maddy stole the duck and then the giant woke up. He said, “fe, fi, fo, fum, that's my duck you’d better run. Fe, fi, fo, fum, I will eat you for breakfast. Here I come.” Maddy ran as fast as a tiger. When she got to the beanstalk she started to climb down. Near the bottom she screamed, “get me the axe.” Her mother ran outside and gave Maddy the axe. As Maddy was chopping the giant climbed back up and was never seen again. As for Maddy and her mother they lived happily ever after.
