Description
Julie thinks her new neighbors must be very scary because all the stuff being moved into their house is enormous. Then she meets David and finds out that he's just a normal, regular boy. But when David's father calls him for supper the sound makes Julie jump in the air, run in a circle three times, run home and lock herself in her room until it is time for breakfast the next day. Could David's father be a giant?

Editorial Reviews
“The pace is quick, the events bizarre, the appeal guaranteed.”
Calgary Herald
“There’s a reason this one is a classic. The themes have held up quite well and are still relevant, more than 35 years after it was first published.”
