Le BGGLe Bon Gros Géant

Format: Paperback

Condition: Very Good — £2.97
What do the conditions mean?

Our conditions mean the following:

  • New - a brand new book
  • Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
  • Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
  • Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
  • Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

"Une nuit où elle observe la ville depuis le dortoir de l'orphelinat, la petite Sophie repère, dans l'ombre, la silhouette d'un colosse effrayant, qui rase furtivement les façades des maisons afin d'observer les habitants endormis. La terrible créature s'arrête finalement devant une chambre d'enfants et y souffle sans bruit le contenu d'un étrange bocal à l'aide de la longue trompette qu'il tient à la main. Effrayée, Sophie s'écarte prestement de la fenêtre, mais une énorme main se saisit d'elle: le géant l'a repérée et la conduit dans sa grotte afin d'éviter qu'elle ne révèle son existence aux autorités et qu'il soit enfermé dans un zoo ou un "parc à fractions". Après avoir surmonté sa peur, la fillette découvre que, contrairement à ses congénères, son kidnappeur est un mastodonte au grand coeur totalement inoffensif, qui s'exprime dans une langue fleurie de mots inventés, qui recueille des rêves pour les souffler dans les oreilles des enfants et qui se nourrit de schnockombres ou de frambouilles plutôt que de chair fraîche. On ne peut toutefois en dire autant de ses congénères à l'odorat très aiguisé, qui se livrent chaque nuit à un carnage que les nouveaux amis entreprennent bientôt d'interrompre en sollicitant l'aide de la reine d'Angleterre en personne!
