I loved this adventure book. It was full of mythical creatures, and it has a message about saving the environment. The pictures are great too. Sometimes I struggle to finish longer books but this 
one kept me reading all the way through. I couldn&rsquo;t put it down - I would definitely recommend it!

A thrilling, gripping book. It pulls you into the amazing fantasy world of the Sprites, Boonas and Giants. I loved it!

I loved reading Billy and the giant adventure. I couldn't put the book down. I love the different chapters and especially the recipes at the end of the book as well!

Billy and his friends know that Waterfall Woods is out of bounds; strange things are rumoured to have happened there and no one in their village has ventured past its walls for decades... 
 
But when they discover a secret way in, Billy and his best friends, Anna, Jimmy and Andy, can't resist the temptation to explore! Only to quickly discover that the woods are brimming with magic and inhabited by all sorts of unusual creatures, including a whole community of sprites who need the childrens' help! 
 
With magical battles, a long-lost mythical city, fantastical flying machines, epic feasts and one GIANT rescue, get ready for an adventure you'll never forget!
