* MagnificentBastard: Hop-o'-My-Thumb was the youngest of seven boys, but he compensated for this with his brain. Learning that his parents were intending on abandoning him and his brothers in the forests, Hop-o'-My-Thumb gathers small pebbles to create a pathway home. When they were captured by a voracious ogre, Hop-o'-My-Thumb switches gold crowns with bonnets, tricking the ogre into killing his own daughters.

* ValuesDissonance: Probebly the best way to explain Hop-o'-My-Thumb condemning seven sleeping children to death. Back in the days the book was written, many monster, such as giants and ogres, were thought of as AlwaysChaoticEvil. As such, simply establishing that the giants seven daughters were monsters would be enough to justify killing them. These days, people are more open to the idea of friendly monsters, and so would be horrified that the so called "hero" just murdered seven young children.
