Get ready for an epic journey of friendship and discovery from the bestselling author of The Girl and the Dinosaur.

There’s a shape up in the hills,

where a giant’s said to sleep, beneath a grassy blanket,

on a bed of moss and peat . . .

Then, one day, the sleeping giant wakes – and a small boy called Tom is plunged into an unforgettable adventure. Along the way, he'll discover what it means to be a true friend – and that even an ordinary boy can have the heart of a giant.

With a beautiful rhyming text by bestselling Hollie Hughes, author of The Girl and the Dinosaur, and gorgeous illustrations from debut talent Anna Wilson, this beautiful book is an unmissable treat!
