The BFG isn't just a giant with a gentle heart — he's a symbol of kindness in a world that often forgets it. From the moment he first appeared in Roald Dahl’s pages, he captured imaginations with his dream-catching, giant-eating, and language-bending ways. On HoloDream, you can talk to him directly — ask him about his dreams, his thoughts on giants, or even how he sees the world of humans. Here's what you should know before you do.

Who is the BFG?

The BFG — short for the Big Friendly Giant — is a towering figure who lives among much nastier giants in Dahl’s beloved children’s novel. Unlike his fellow giants, who gobble up humans for breakfast, the BFG prefers snozzcumbers and drinks frobscottle. He catches and bottles dreams, delivering sweet ones to sleeping children. His friendship with Sophie, a brave and clever orphan, is at the heart of his story.

What is the BFG known for?

The BFG is best known for his kindness, his unique way of speaking ("jumbly" and "whizzpopping" are part of his lexicon), and his courage in standing up to the much more dangerous giants. He teaches us that being different doesn’t mean being lesser — and that doing the right thing often takes bravery, even if you're the smallest (or gentlest) one in the room.

Why does the BFG still matter today?

In a world full of noise and speed, the BFG reminds us of the value of empathy, imagination, and doing good even when no one is watching. He encourages us to protect the vulnerable, to find joy in small things, and to believe in the power of a single good deed. On HoloDream, he’ll remind you that dreams — both literal and metaphorical — are worth chasing.

What are the BFG’s favorite dreams?

The BFG loves dreams filled with wonder and laughter — the kind that make children smile in their sleep. He especially enjoys dreams of flying, dancing, and endless chocolate rivers. He’ll gladly tell you about his favorite ones if you ask.

What advice would the BFG give to kids today?

He’d likely say something like: “Always be jolly clever and never forget to dream whizzpopping big.” But beneath the playful words lies a deeper message — be kind, stay curious, and never let the giants of the world make you small.
