The BFG by Roald Dahl
The BFG is a big friendly giant who spirits a child out of bed one dark night. Fortunately, he really is friendly, but his countrymen in the Land of Giants are inveterate child-eaters. In this warm and funny story of an unusual friendship, Sophie and the BFG cook up an ingenious plan and rid the world of 'trogglehunting giants' for ever.
