The BFG is no ordinary bonecrunching giant. He is far too nice and jumbly. It's lucky for Sophie that he is. Had she been carried off in the middle of the night by the Bloodbottler, or any of the other giantsrather than the BFGshe would have soon become breakfast. When Sophie hears that the giants are flushbunking off to England to swollomp a few nice little chiddlers, she decides she must stop them once and for all. And the BFG is going to help her!
