From the publisher

Author/illustrator Dylan Hewitt’s Giant Giant is a humorous and eventful picture book that shows both the negative effects of bullying and the importance of being kind. Every day, a giant spreads terror among the villagers of a peaceful town. He commands them to wash his underwear and to cook large feasts for him, or else he will stomp on the entire village! This demanding giant does not seem to have a worry in the world. But his misfortune is about to strike, as a giant even more gigantic than him is about to take over! “Hewitt’s bold covers, special sight gags and appealingly retro, poster-art style are a winning match for this picture book’s timely message about a giant bully who threatens to stomp out all the ‘peaceful little people’ in a ‘peaceful little place.’” –New York Times “This quirky but straightforward story presents a playful, literal representation of what it means when a bully ‘steps all over’ others, and the positive change a hand extended in friendship can inspire . . . A plainspoken tale of the relativity of size and power, this belongs on shelves.” –School Library Journal
