Chapter 4
Land of Giants
Back in England, Gulliver makes a living by exhibiting his tiny animals from Lilliput. The following year, he sets sail with Captain John Nicholas and his crew to explore the great island for fresh water. Upon their journey on these islands, they are warned about the unfriendly natives. Nevertheless they decide to explore one of the islands. Left behind by the others on the island, Gulliver encounters giants in the cornfield. One of the giants picks him up and the terrified Gulliver begs for his life. The giant brings Gulliver to his master who then invites him for a meal. At the master giant’s home, Gulliver meets his daughter, Glumdalclitch. She takes care of him and he becomes the source of income for the family.
One day, the Queen hears about Gulliver and invites him to stay at her palace. Gulliver is sold to the Queen with the condition that Glumdalclitch remains as his nurse. In his every encounter with danger, Glumdalclitch is always there to rescue him.
