Recall the other giants and their work. Children imagine who the third giant may be.

HANS MEETS A THIRD GIANT.
Hans and the two big giants went on together. They had not gone more than three or four miles when Hans spied another great giant sitting under a tall tree.
As they came up to him the wind blew his hat off his head. “I will fetch it for you,” cried Hans, as he ran forward after the hat. But, before he could get to the spot where the hat lay, the big giant reached out his long arm and himself picked up his hat and put it again on his head.
At this all three of the huge giants laughed. “Didn’t you know that he is the giant who can reach five hundred yards?” asked the long-legged giant. “No,” exclaimed Hans, clapping his hands with delight. “You are just the giant I need. When I get to the North Sea you can reach down to the bottom of it and pick up the enchanted necklace of pearls. Will you not come and help me?” The new giant thought for a minute or two, and then said, “Oh, yes, I will go along if I can be of any use to you.”
So Hans and the three big giants started gayly forward on their journey to the North Sea.
