About this deal

The BFG takes Sophie to Dream Country but is bullied along the way by his neighbors, led by Fleshlumpeater, the largest and strongest. This is small for a giant – the others are described as being 50 feet tall – and this could have sculpted his aesthetic sense. He explains that although most giants do eat humans, he does not because he is the Big Friendly Giant, or BFG; he had carried Sophie off merely so she would not reveal that she had seen a real giant, which would put him at risk of being captured for a zoo-exhibit.

In fact, his weakness is cowardice, especially when thinking about Jack, the character in the tale, Jack and the Beanstalk.A 6ft/200lb man has a basal metabolic rate of 2226, and eats 2,671 calories a day (if you’re curious, the 20% difference is caused by thermal inefficiency – your stomach doesn’t perfectly convert food into energy, which would break the second law of thermodynamics. Then suddenly the heavens opened and he let fly with a series of the loudest and rudest noises Sophie had ever heard in her life. Japanese beans is very small, so a giant will need to gobble up about six Japanese before he is feeling full up. As he will never allow Sophie to leave in case she tells anyone of his existence, the BFG reveals the purpose of his suitcase and trumpet: he catches dreams in Dream Country, collects them in jars, and gives the good ones to children all around the world, but destroys the bad ones.

Others like the Norway people and the Yankee-Doodles is ever so much bigger and usually two or three of those makes a good tuck-in. On his bare feet he was wearing a pair of ridiculous sandals that for some reason had holes cut along each side, with a large hole at the end where his toes stuck out. Luckily, the larger giant spits her out unnoticed and leaves in disgust, much to the BFG's and Sophie's relief. For a few moments, the Big Friendly Giant stood quite still, and a look of absolute ecstasy began to spread over his long wrinkly face. Fully convinced, she authorizes a task force to travel to the giants' homeland and secure them as they sleep.Fleshlumpeater is a leader in the group of giants and confronts the BFG about leaving during the daytime. He shows no mercy for eating so many humans over the years, and is happy with what he has done and would continue it if he could. That means,’ said Sophie, ‘that somewhere in the world, every single night, nine wretched people get carried away and eaten alive. Tourists come in huge numbers to watch the giants in the pit, who are only fed snozzcumbers; they receive an unexpected welcome snack when three drunks manage to climb the safety fence one night and fall in. When Trump was elected he would have been out marching in the street, wearing a pussyhat the size of a bumbershoot.

The BFG takes her to Giant Country, where they eat snozzcumbers, go dream-catching, and stop the other giants from eating human beans. Despite looking disgusting and towering over even the BFG, Fleshlumpeater is not exempt from imperfections.

The BFG explains, in a unique and messy speech, that his nine neighbours are much bigger and stronger giants, who all happily eat humans every night. The Fleshlumpeater: The leader of the nine man-eating giants and the largest and most horrible of the bunch. According to the BFG, the flavours of the humans that the man-eating giants dine on depends on their country of origin: Turks taste like turkey, Greeks are too greasy (and hence apparently no giant ever visits that country), people from Panama taste like hats, the Welsh taste like fish, people from Jersey taste like cardigans, and the Danes taste like dogs. Klieber’s Law states that the metabolic rate of a endothermic homeotherm (such as a giant) scales as M Sophie, squinting through the glare of the sun, saw several tremendous tall figures moving among the rocks about five hundred yards away.

The Fleshlumpeater, appearing to be the leader of the giants is the most terrifying having tribal tattoos and markings, ear rings and battle scars, gold wrist cuffs, razor sharp, talon-like fingernails, one red eye and one blinded eye with a scar. Fleshlumpeater, the coward that he is, felt the pin in his ankle, saying "The teeth of the dreadly viper is still sticking into me. At that moment Sophie remembered the brooch that the Queen had given her and knew what she had to do. Along with all the other Giants, he is captured and bound somewhere in England, where he is fed only Snozzcumbers.On 25 December 1989, ITV broadcast an animated film based on the book and produced by Cosgrove Hall Films on television, with David Jason providing the voice of the BFG and Amanda Root as the voice of Sophie. Quentin Blake’s favourite Roald Dahl book is ‘The BFG’, for which he drew double the number of pictures that he had been originally asked for. Between 1986 and 1998, the novel was adapted into a newspaper comic by journalist Brian Lee and artist Bill Asprey. The BFG explains to Sophie that giants are afraid of only one person - Jack from the fairy tale ''Jack and the Beanstalk,'' where a giant is killed.
