This has Dahl written all over, it is makes you want to laugh at the sheer nonsense of it gasp at the huge outrageousness of and cry at how Sophie finds a home at last with her friend the BFG one of Dahl's best

The Giant

Customer Rating:

The BFG is a about a girl that gets taken away by a big friendly giant from the orphanage. She gets taken to a dried up magical land and has to hide or another giant will eat her flesh! I like this book because it is adventurous. You never know if a giant is standing behind you about an inch away from eating your flesh! SCARY! This book is so great, that I will never stop reading it until I am eighty! (Just so you know I am only eight and a half).

Favourite quick read.

Customer Rating:

Well, this book was first read to me when I was 5, I am now 20 and it has never been surpassed as my No. 1 favourite book, especially if I want a quick read and a good laugh. I would recomend this book to all ages, even those who are young, as the eating of Human Beans is for a weird reason, not very prominent in the forefront of your mind. One might suppose this would be because none of the eaten childers are named or introduced in the book. It all happens elsewhere, and does not happen anywhere that the story is actually happening, (childers do get eaten in England, which is where the story is set, but none that Sophie has ever meet). All in all, a very good read and worth the money, however much you spend.

The BFG

Customer Rating:

Roald Dahl is the author of "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory," "Matilda," and "The Witches" and other children's classics. The BFG is about a girl who lives at an orphanage named Sophie. When Sophie sees a giant, when she shouldn't have, the giant has no other choice but to snatch her. But the giant isn't like the other giants. Good thing or otherwise he might have eaten Sophie after taking her from the orphanage. In the giant's world, things are very different for Sophie. After she learns about the other giants who do eat people, she creates a plan to save the world from them with the BFG's help of course.

BFG	Customer Rating:
Great story for a read aloud. Kids love listening to and reading along with the descriptive language.
