“It was scary, but I begged for that story. How the king adored his older children but could barely stand to look at his youngest son. How he was the youngest of 12. The youngest of 13. How a woman with seven brawny sons gave birth to an eighth who was no bigger than a finger. The parents were amazed at their inch long baby.” From “Fearsome Giant, Fearless Child: A Worldwide Jack And The Beanstalk Story” by Paul Fleischman and Julie Paschkis.
