Add a CommentTHIS BOOK IS EPIC! it is my favourite ever book. it has lots of Roald Dahls funny made-up words, (for instance the television is called the telly-telly bunkum box), and it is very fast moving. Amazing. :)
The BFG is very kind
This is one of my most favorite of all Roald Dahl's books. The story is engaging and fantastic. Quentin Blake's illustrations are wonderful (the teeny little Sophie is so cute!). The story includes one of the best messages on protecting the environment I've read anywhere, and also provides commentary on humans' propensity for violence against other humans (all couched in language suitable for children). The BFG first appeared in Danny the Champion of the World (he featured in a bedtime story Danny's dad would tell him).
Makes me glad that I don't have to eat snozzcumbers!
One of my most favorite books since childhood.
Great book! Such an amazing, beautiful story.
The BFG (Big Friendly Giant) is a cute story that kids are sure to enjoy.
