A lonely orphan girl makes a most unusual friend as best-selling children's author Roald Dahl's timeless story comes to life in an animated effort that was nominated for Best Children's Program by the Academy of Film and Television. A twenty-five foot prince who harvests the dreams of Dream Country and blows them into the minds of children with his magical trumpet, the Big Friendly Giant is troubled to learn that some of the less friendly giants of the land have left many English boys and girls unable to rest soundly in their beds at night. Now determined to put a stop to the frightening activities of the gargantuan grumps, the Big Friendly Giant joins forces with young orphan Sophie to seek out the aid of Her Majesty the Queen and deliver the most spectacular dreams imaginable to the children who now sleep safely nestled away from the threat of the towering monsters who had once filled their hearts with fear and dread.

different enough from the book to be disappointing
I was so excited to get ths movie because the book is SO FANTASTIC, but I was disappointed by the movie. The storyline changes in some significant places (especially the ending). The animation is of low-quality. The backgrounds are detailed and beautiful, but anything that moves (i.e. characters) is drawn coursely and the movements are jerky. My husband and I did not enjoy it, but the kids LOVED it. I was glad for this because I bought it mostly for them :)
