The BFG Chapter Three: The Snatch Summary

  • Sophie waits for a minute, then peeks out from under the blanket to find the giant staring at her from the window. (She doesn’t scream then, but we would.)
  • The giant sticks his hand and arms through the window, reaching toward Sophie. Now she screams.
  • Only for a second though, because the hand clamps down over her blanket, which muffles the sound.
  • The giant lifts Sophie out of the room, rearranges the blanket so she’s stuck inside, and then starts running.
  • Sophie manages to peek her head out and sees the village speeding past. She thinks the giant wants to get home quickly so he can eat her. All that because there was a moonbeam on her face.
