The Hungry Little Giant "I'm hungry! I could swallow Wales!" the little giant cried. "Tonight we're having Chile, dear," the giant's mother sighed. "Can I please have Samoa, Mom?" the little giant asked her. "Just don't forget dessert," she said. "We're having Baked Alaska." "Tomorrow we'll eat Turkey, there is truly nothing finer. We'll cook it in the oven and we'll serve it up on China."
