Eine spannende, mit viel Humor erzählte Geschichte für Kinder ab 8 Jahren über einen zu klein geratenen Riesen, der auszieht, die Welt der Menschen zu entdecken – und zum Helden wird. Riesen sind groß. Normalerweise. Aber Munkel Trogg ist klein. Alle machen sich lustig über ihn, weil er nur so groß ist wie ein Mensch. Deshalb will Munkel wissen, wie Menschen so sind. Heimlich macht er sich auf den Weg. Und damit beginnt ein großes Abenteuer. Ein wunderbarer Roman um den kleinsten Riesen der Welt mit einem Herz aus Gold

When Mount Grumble shows signs of erupting, Muncle Trogg, the smallest but smartest giant, and his human friend Emily save the day.

De reus Munkel Trog is een buitenbeentje. Hij is niet groter dan een mens. Hij besluit een kijkje in de mensenwereld te nemen, maar zijn bezoek verloopt heel anders dan verwacht. Voorlezen vanaf ca. 7 jaar, zelf lezen vanaf ca. 8 jaar.

Os gigantes vivem no topo do Monte Grumble, escondidos dos humanos que estão lá embaixo. Mas nem todos são realmente grandes. Muncle Trogg, por exemplo, é tão pequeno que acaba virando alvo da zombaria dos outros. Chateado, decide descer a montanha e dar uma olhada nos tais pequeninos, com quem dizem que ele se parece. E o que Muncle descobre é de fato surpreendente. Um meigo e encantador conto de fadas às avessas, Muncle Trogg: O menor gigante do mundo é o primeiro volume da série protagonizada por Muncle, Emily e o dragão Snarg, que irá arrancar gargalhadas dos jovens leitores.

A topsy-turvy fairy tale about a small giant on a big adventure!Let''s get ready to grumble! Mount Grumble is where the giants live. But (contrary to what you might think, maybe because of their name) not every "giant" (see?) is, um...big. In fact, Muncle Trogg is so SMALL that all the other giants make fun of him for being (uh-oh) people-sized. And toss him around like a football!Fed up, Muncle Trogg climbs down Mount Grumble to take a look at the Smallings (that would be humans) he supposedly looks like. What he discovers is......a sulky green dragon and a terribly sensible girl? But when Mount Grumble is put in harm''s way, it''s up to little Muncle to be the bigger smallest giant, prove that size doesn''t matter, and somehow save his home!"Sparkling. A cracking tale." -- The Times of London

It is Midsummer''s Eve, and the meerlings of Minderdale are preparing for their annual celebration. Extracts from their Legend will be read, and school-leavers will be received into the adult community. Moroc has been looking forward to it for ages. There is only one snag. Before he can come of age he has to undertake a Challenge to prove that he has the courage necessary to take his place in adult society, and Moroc has no courage at all. But far worse is to come. As Moroc sets out on his Challenge, events are taking place not far away which will change his life for ever. Centuries ago, landmen took over meerling country, stealing their homes and killing everyone they caught. Those who escaped survived only by hiding in a cave system deep under Minderdale, where their descendants still live today. The meerlings have stayed safe until now by keeping to darkness and water, where they are at home and the landmen are not. Now the landmen are back and they are very different from the ones the meerlings fled from long ago. Hiding is no longer good enough. With no time to lose, the colony''s leaders come up with a desperate alternative, and Moroc suddenly has to find more courage than any meerling has needed for centuries.
