That's not to say that these giants deserved such a grim fate, but I think it's safe to say the male giant definitely overreacted a bit when Jack stole the magical harp.

Henry III wrote in a glowing review in Time magazine in 1987: [B]y the end of the first act the fairy-tale figures have bonded into a community and sing and dance about living happily ever ...
