This was a book my father used to read to me at bedtime in the early/mid-90s. There was a little girl (perhaps with a pageboy haircut, pretty sure she had brown hair and bangs!) who, for reasons I cannot remember, comes upon a giant (who if memory serves had one giant eye) whom she has to hide. I feel like there may be a scene in a library and/or one involving a fence or hedge. I’ve been searching for this book for YEARS!

Thank you so much!
The BFG by Roald Dahl?
Not the BFG, but good guess! It was a big picture bookâdefinitely not illustrated by Quentin Blake (one of my fave illustrators!) or as long a story as Dahl’s BFG. Thank you, Sue!!
