The BFG
The Giant picked up the trembling Sophie with one hand and carried her across the cave and put
her on the table.
Now he really is going to eat me, Sophie thought.
The Giant sat down and stared hard at Sophie. He had truly enormous ears. Each one was as big
as the wheel of a truck and he seemed to be able to move them inwards and outwards1 from his head
as he wished.
‘I is hungry!’ the Giant boomed. He grinned, showing massive square teeth. The teeth were very
white and very square and they sat in his mouth like huge slices of white bread.
‘P… please don’t eat me,’ Sophie stammered2.
The Giant let out a bellow3 of laughter. ‘Just because I is a giant, you think I is a man-gobbling
cannybull!’ he shouted. ‘You is about right! Giants is all cannybully and murderful! And they does
gobble up human beans! We is in Giant Country now! Giants is everywhere around! Out there us has
the famous Bonecrunching Giant! Bonecrunching Giant crunches5 up two wopsey whiffling human
beans for supper every night! Noise is earbursting! Noise of crunching4 bones goes crackety-crack for
miles around!’
‘Owch!’ Sophie said.
‘Bonecrunching Giant only gobbles human beans from Turkey’ the Giant said. ‘Every night
Bonecruncher is galloping6 off to Turkey to gobble Turks.’
Sophie’s sense of patriotism7 was suddenly so bruised8 by this remark that she became quite angry
‘Why Turks?’ she blurted9 out. ‘What’s wrong with the English?’
‘Bonecrunching Giant says Turks is tasting oh ever so much juicier and more
