Usage stats on BFG (character)

 Permalink

an Entity in Data Space: dbkwik.org

A very friendly giant who lives in Giant Country.He specialises in dreams and uses a blowhorn to blow dreams into peoples ears. He also is a friend to Sophie,but at the beginning of the book he kidnaps her (his reason for this is because she saw him one night, and thought she would tell the whole neighbourhood, so he couldn't take any chance). The character also appears in Danny the Champion of the World as a story told by the titular character's father.Also his speech pattern is odd as there were no schools in Giant Country. Sophie points this out to the Queen of England who says that England has the finest schools. After the capture of the Giants,she gives him his very own palace and a cottage for Sophie who becomes the BFG's language tutor. The other rulers of the world send him thank-y
