The hungry giant from Pete Seeger's classic is back in a new, original story. The town that Abiyoyo once terrorized now has a new problem: a boulder is blocking progress on the dam the town needs to plant trees. A little girl suggests bringing back Abiyoyo to move the boulder, and she has a plan that includes her grandfather and his magic wand. Full-color illustrations.
