All About the Giant Alexander

A very welcome paperback edition of the one-volume collection of four illustrated stories of this amiable giant. Not widely available these stories are not as universally known as they should be. The Giant Alexander's adventures are always of the gentlest kind, helping conventionally-sized people in socially useful ways: scrubbing Nelson's Column with his old toothbrush for instance, or rescuing astronauts in distress. George Him's pictures are sadly not here in colour but reasonable quality paper means that the reproduction in black and white is an acceptable alternative for the price. Don't miss this.
