Okay, but now show me the size of the file in a human readible format next to the name.

You can use the "-h" (human-readable) options to du and sort to do this:

  $ du -sh * | sort -rh
  20M dist
  6.9M pebble
  1.5M internal
  308K cmd
  ...

du -s -h * | sort -r -h

add: | numfmt --to=iec

it's already in a human readable format next to the name.
