The Twin Giants

Publisher: Walker Books

High up on Mountain Number One there lived a giant mother and father and their huge twin babies.

Normus and Lottavim were identical. They played the same noisy games, they sneezed in unison and neither could sing. There was only one difference: Lottavim liked meat whereas Normus was a vegetarian.

At the age of twenty and the height of eighteen feet, Norm and Lot each decided to look for a wife. Up and down the mighty mountains they strode, until finally on Mountain Number Seven, beautiful twin giantesses appeared...

This simple, heart-warming tale is complemented by appealing illustrations of funny little foxes, bemused sheep and startled rabbits who follow the giants' adventures, often with their paws over their ears.
