Kids The BFG Costume Roald Dahl Friendly Giant World Child Boys Book Week Kit Included in the kit is a brown waistcoat, grey cape with velcro fasten at neck, a headband with two over sized ears attached and a felt trumpet prop. The idea of a giant who captured dreams and kept them in bottles for children to enjoy while they were asleep was conceived and made into the popular novel BFG by Roald Dahl. In The BFG , the dream-hunting giant takes orphan Sophie – named after Roald’s first grandchild – back to his cave in Giant Country, where he lives surrounded by nine other fearsome giants who spend every night guzzling down humans. Ten-year-old Sophie is in for the adventure of a lifetime when she meets the Big Friendly Giant. Naturally scared at first, the young girl soon realises that the 24-foot behemoth is actually quite gentle and charming. As their friendship grows, Sophie’s presence attracts the unwanted attention of Bloodbottler, Fleshlumpeater and other giants. After traveling to London, Sophie and the BFG must convince Queen Elizabeth to help them get rid of all the bad giants once and for all. The BFG won the Federation of Children’s Book Groups Award in 1982. In 1989 it was turned into an animated film featuring the voice of David Jason. More than 30 years later, The BFG remains a much-loved character. This Costume Accessory kit includes: • Waistcoat • Cape • Trumpet • Ears on Headband
