| - During one such time when he is catching dreams, he encounters an orphan named Sophie. The BFG fears that Sophie will expose the identity of the Giants if she is left to reveal what she had seen. To this end, he captured her in the night. Sophie tried to run, but the giant sticks a large hand in and takes Sophie. The figure strides across England and many other countries when they arrive in Giant Country. Although Sophie thought that this is the end of her life, the BFG revealed that he was friendly. But luckily for Sophie she discovers that the giant is actually the Big Friendly Giant (BFG). He told her about the nine other giants that love taking Humans in the middle of the night, regardless of their age. Sophie decided to stop them, and the BFG agrees to help her. She tells the BFG she is hungry, and the BFG served her a Snozzcumber. Sophie took a bite, and she spat it out. The BFG told her she was stuck with it and introduced her to Frobscottle, which, to Sophie's delight, tasted magnificent. A few seconds later, she was lifted off the ground by a "Whizzpopper".
