The problem with telling a fairy tale nowadays (especially in America) is political correctness.
This does children no good. By taking the teeth out of fairy tales, children are programmed into thinking there are no harsh consequences for bad deeds. Grimm’s fairy tales were grim for good reason! Fairy tales were designed to lay down the law of human morality for children.
Roald Dahl’s 1982 book, “The BFG” (“Big Friendly Giant”) is about giants. Now, giants generally eat humans—remember “Fee, fi, fo, fum, I smell the blood of an Englishman”?
Spoiler-alert: this review is primarily for those taking small children; the conclusion here tells what happens to bad giants.
