It is true what children say in the orphanage, and many monsters walk into the human world to devour children. Quite soon, Sophie has to face bad news because it turns out that not all giants are good. She is very happy since she understands that the BFG sends children good dreams through his magic tube, mixing “one dream with another” (Dahl 82). The new friend shows Sophie a laboratory for the production of beautiful and good dreams. The girl is not afraid of him at all and does not feel lonely. Gradually, friendship develops between the Big Friendly Giant (the BFG) and Sophie.
In addition, the girl is very lucky because her giant is a vegetarian and eats only plant food. Compared to them, her new acquaintance seems to be a teenager who barely reaches their shoulders. In the morning, Sophie notices that the monster has brought her to the land of giants. The giant also notices the girl and, quickly grabbing her, rushes away from this place. The monster walks, looks through windows, and blows something into a tube. As Dahl notes, it is “something very tall and very black and very thin” (7). Looking at the night street, to her horror, Sophie sees a huge monster.
One day, she decides to check out this legend when she cannot fall asleep for a long time. Sophie tries not to believe these stories, but she secretly thinks about such terrible tales. It is possible to protect oneself from them in one way – not to look at the windows at night and curtain them tightly so that not a single ray of light could break through them. There, she hears from other children a terrible story about giants who walk at night, steal children, and then eat them. A little girl named Sophie is an orphan who lives in a shelter.
