Spill the Beans

Spill the Beans by Sarah Mlynowski

Whatever After continues.


After Jonah fails in a soccer game, Abby draws him to the mirror in hopes of cheering him up. They do land in his favorite Jack And The Beanstalk, and Jonah's afraid of ruining it, and then he accidentally lets slip about the magic beans, which inspire Jack and his mother to prevent it.

It includes the rhyme about grinding bones to make bread, Jonah's remembering the fairy in the tale, selling Prince, and more.
