In Search of the Hidden Giant by Jeanne Willis
Told in narrative rhyme, this book tells the story of two children and their dog on a walk in the Great Wood. They have heard of a sleeping giant and as they walk they begin to see that things take on new shapes - a tree trunk looks like an arm. Then they realize the wood is the giant.
Jeanne Willis wrote her first book when she was five. After that, there was no turning back. She has since written more than three hundred books and has won several awards, which are arranged in the attic where she works along with her collection of caterpillars, pink-toed tarantula skins, and live locusts. Jeanne Willis lives in London. Briony May Smith grew up in Sandhurst in Berkshire, England, playing in the garden with her younger brother and sister. She now lives in Devon, where her workday mainly consists of drawing fairies, interrupted only when her dog, Finbar, demands his walk. Her work is inspired by fairy tales, folklore, and life in the country.
