George the giant wished he wasn’t the scruffiest giant in town. So, one day, when he sees a new shop selling giant sized clothes, he decides it’s time for a new look. With smart trousers. A smart shirt, stripy tie and shiny shoes, George is a new giant. But, on his way home, he meets various animals who desperately need his help . . . And his clothes!

Some questions to consider after listening to the story:
1. Why do you think George wanted some new clothes? 2. Which animal did George give his tie to? What did the animal use it for? 3. Why did the animals give George a crown and a card? How did this make George feel? 4. How do George’s feelings change throughout the story? |

A very special thank you letter.
The animals are so grateful for the help that the giant gave to them. They decide to thank him with a lovely letter and a gift of a gold paper crown. You have people in your life that help you every day. Write them a letter to say thank you. It will make them feel very special.
