A letter from the Giant
We decided to write some questions that we might like to ask the Giant and guess what...
He wrote us a very long letter (it looked a bit like a bean stalk!) and we noticed that he answered some of our questions!
Dear children
Thank you for your questions!
I will try to answer some of them 4 U.
My name is Humphrey and I am a rain maker.
Everyday I clean the clouds and make rain to help the plants grow.
I have lived up in the sky for a long time and come down to Fairy tale land
on a rainbow-I slide down. I can't come down often because I scare people.
I don't mean to!! I am 799 years old but my birthday is on 19th March.
When I was born my mum said that I was big and just kept on growing.
I think that I stopped groing when I was 500 hundred years old.
I met my lovely wife Marigold 1 day when I was climbing the rainbow.
She was polishing the rainbow to make it shine!
The beanstalk was another way to get to my castle when it isn't raining.
I was quite shocked to see it!
I felt so sad that Jack stole my things. I have had them for a very long time.
My eyes are tired now i must go. Please write again.
Maybe you could come to my birthday party on Friday!
love from the
Friendly Giant
