Here Be Giants by Susannah Lloyd
Prithee, let us not tarry, for I am setting forth on a new MOST PERILOUS quest! The hero of this book, a rather hapless knight, has just come across a most fortuitous find.
All the other knights in the kingdom say he could never track down a giant, but he has something quite special a book with all the tips he needs to help him on his quest, and he couldnt have found it sooner, for here be GIANTS!
And so, with his long-suffering horse, and his nose in his precious book "How to Spot a Giant Before He Spots You", the knight sets off to find a giant. He looks out for BIG things, but all he can find are tiny forest creatures and an exasperated damsel who are all much too small.
Next, he tries going UP. He obliviously passes a beanstalk and scales a great rock instead (the giants leg). More obstacles appear: thunder (the giants tummy rumbling), fierce winds (the giant hungrily sniffing him) and rain (the giants drool).
Undeterred, the knight whips out his trusty umbrella and takes shelter in a grassy meadow (the giants leafy sandwich!)
Will this unobservant hero see whats in front of him before its too late? Young readers will love the hes behind you! feel of this laugh-out-loud follow-up to Here Be Dragons from Susannah Lloyd and Paddy Donnelly.
