HERE BE GIANTS! Where? That's the question in this laugh-out-loud picture book where everyone is in on the joke except the hapless hero.
“A hilarious “he’s behind you” book about a very hapless knight and the not-so-invisible giant he is trying to find.”
Message of female empowerment and traditional gender role subversion. Features a damsel not in distress who swoops in to save the day, as a counterpoint to the hapless knight.
