A gorgeous clothbound edition of The BFG, part of a collection of Roald Dahl's iconic titles.

Discover The Roald Dahl Clothbound Collection, a stunning hardback collection of Roald Dahl's most beloved titles.

Obviously it was not a human. But it was definitely a person. A giant person, perhaps.

One dark, silvery moonlit night, Sophie is snatched from her bed by a giant.

Luckily it is the Big Friendly Giant (the BFG), who is no ordinary bone-crunching giant, but instead prefers snozzcumbers and frobscottle to children.

But there are other giants in Giant Country. And those giants have a plan to gallop far and wide to find some tasty human beans to eat.

Can Sophie and the BFG stop them?

The Roald Dahl Clothbound Collection uses the versions of Dahl's books that were published before the 2022 Puffin editions.
