The BFG by Roald Dahl is one of those classic kid books that somehow I never read as a child. So, I decided to read it this week. The BFG is about Sophie, an orphan who is plucked out of her bed one night by a giant. Her fears of getting eaten by the giant go away when she realizes that this giant is the Big Friendly Giant--not a human-eating one like the other 9 giants who live where he does. In The BFG, Sophie allies with the BFG to try to save the lives of humans, who keep getting eaten by the gruesome, evil giants.
This book was very entertaining to read. It's one of those stories where imaginary things are happening, but as you read, you believe that it really was this way. Roald Dahl's books really just capture a fun side of childhood. It was a fun read.
