Jack and the Snackstalk

A few jelly beans are about to turn into a GIANT problem!

Princess heads to Moldylocks’s house for movie night. Moldy’s cousin Jack comes, too. He brings pink jelly beans for a snack. But Princess doesn’t like pink, so she throws the jelly beans out the window. Soon, the beans sprout into a huge pillar of snacks! The three friends climb up the snackstalk and find themselves in Snackland! It is filled with pizza-roll hills and nacho-cheese rivers, and there’s even a golden egg roll in a snack-filled castle! The problem is there’s also a GIANT in that castle! Will Princess and her friends ever escape Snackland?
