The Grasshopper is one of the insects James meets inside of the Giant Peach. When James first sees the Grasshopper, he is terrified because the grasshopper is as large as a dog. As the novel progresses, James learns much about the Old-Green-Grasshopper, including the facts that his body is like a living violin, and that his ears are small slits in his belly.
