Product Description
This is the well-loved tale of a huge friendly giant who spirits a child out of bed to the land of the child-eating giants. This edition has a fantastic new take in by Quentin Blake as well as a whole new exciting end section about Roald Dahl and his world.Amazon.com Review
Evidently not even Roald Dahl could resist the acronym craze of the early eighties. BFG? Bellowing ferret-faced golfer? Backstabbing fairy godmother? Oh, oh … Huge Friendly Giant! This BFG doesn’t seem all that F at first as he creeps down a London street, snatches small Sophie out of her bed, and bounds away with her to giant land. And he’s not really all that B when compared with his evil, carnivorous brethren, who tough him for being such an oddball runt. After all, he eats only disgusting snozzcumbers, and while the additional Gs are snacking on small boys and girls, he’s blowing pleased dreams in through their windows. What kind of way is that for a G to behave?
The BFG is one of Dahl’s most lovable character creations. Whether galloping off with Sophie nestled into the soft skin of his ear to capture dreams as though they were exotic butterflies; language his delightful, in a state, squib-fangled vernacular; or whizzpopping for the Queen, he leaves an quick impression of bigheartedness. (Ages 9 to 12)

The BFG was another terrible Dahl 80’s book(see my review on The Witches). It is about the Huge Friendly Giant who befriends Sophie, a orphan girl. They go on tons of adventures. Repeat:Need I say More? Terrible Work Dahl, Terrible Work!

This is a horrible book. This book will scare children to death. They will be worried of being kidnapped from their bed as they sleep and be eaten by giants. There is no redeeming quility about this book. Any one who likes it is not thinking about whats best for children.

This was scheduled to arrive no later than August 16th. Despite repeated attempts to contact Amazon, it arrived September 2nd, and I had to go to the post office to get it. It was for my daughter’s birthday, and arrived weeks after her birthday. It is a fantastic book, but Amazon’s service was dreadful.

I have tried, really I have, to like Road Dahl and what is referred to “classic literature,” I have read the BFG and James and the Giant Peach with my kids. But I establish myself editing as I went and I did not like all the dark underlying content. These are books for children, right? James’ parents being killed by a rhino and then the dreadful cruelty of his aunts, and in the BFG the giants and their horrid names that eat children… am I the only one who sees a problem here?? No more for us. I really do not know why these books are rated well. I really do not know why they read the BFG in my son’s second grade class either. These books are NOT for young kids and are depressing.

The BFG is one of my favourite Roald Dahl books. I first read it when I was 5. I am now 12 and loved it even more ! There are some excellent aspects but some long and dull parts. The BFG is a magical book filled with surprises and fantasy. Try it out !
