A new edition of this witty but thought-provoking picture book by bestselling author and illustrator Colin McNaughton. Deep in the rainforest, a huge giant meets a small boy and tells him an amazing story: a tale of friendly giants, terrible ogres, and the most dangerous creatures of all: the giant-killers.

Giant Reviews

Lightly and amusingly told ... Brightly illustrated with masses of fascinating details, and well plotted. * The Guardian *
The book has lush illustrations, lots of jokes and cartoon-style illustrations. It is, however, a serious book... * The Books for Keeps Green Guide to Children's Books *
For all his gifts as a comic-book illustrator in the Beano tradition, McNaughton is a subtle operator ... His warning has none of the plonking didacticism that comes from less thoughtful artists. * The Times *
