The classic English publication of Jack and the Beanstalk is believed to be inspired by a group of 5,000-year-old stories of The Boy Who Stole Ogre's Treasure, told in Indo-European languages. Therefore, to avoid creating the English Jack and Giant that everyone has seen before, I opted to create a Jack and Giant of Indian/Pakistani descent to put a little more diverse (non-white) representation out into the world. <3 #AsphodelNurseryRhymes #JackandtheBeanstalk
