An exquisite 30th anniversary edition of The BFG - Roald Dahl's much-loved story of a little girl, Sophie, and a Big Friendly Giant. This large format paperback comes in a beautiful, ingeniously designed slipcase and is a gloriumptious gift for Roald Dahl fans and book collectors. 'Human beans is not really believing in giants, is they? Human beans is not thinking we exist.' On a dark, silvery moonlit night, Sophie is snatched from her bed by a giant. Luckily it is the Big Friendly Giant, the BFG, who only eats snozzcumbers and glugs frobscottle. But there are other giants in Giant Country. Fifty foot brutes who gallop far and wide every night to find human beans to eat. Can Sophie and her friend the BFG stop them? Listen to THE BFG and other Roald Dahl audiobooks read by some very famous voices, including Kate Winslet, David Walliams and Steven Fry - plus there are added squelchy soundeffects from Pinewood Studios! Look out for new Roald Dahl apps in the App store and Google Play- including the disgusting TWIT OR MISS! inspired by the revolting Twits.

The BFG is a story about an unlikely pair, the Big Friendly Giant, and Sophie a young orphan girl in England. One night during the "witching hour" Sophie is awake, and sees a large dark shape in the streets. Before she knows it she is snatched up, and taken to giant land. There she meets her captor, the BFG and learns all about him, and how he distributes dreams to children. She also learns about the horrible giants outside the cave walls and how each night they travel all over the world to eat people. The BFG and Sophie are determined to put an end to the people-eating, so they must come up with a plan. An interesting part is that the BFG has never had any schooling, so some of his words and phrases are mixed up and made up, which can be a little confusing but entertaining and fun. I say this book is good for kids over 6 years old to 85 years old. I rate this book 4 out of 5 stars.

i love this book so much because it is about a little girl who gets taken by a giant imagine that!!!!!

Just like the movie The BFG is a very heartfekt story of a little girl who met a little giant. This book is for those with an imgination that love an almost kid like fiction. I recommend this book to any and all ages who love a read that takes you back to when you were young again.

I LOVE this book. It is an amazing book. I also love the author, Roald Dahl. This book is about a girl who meets a giant. They become friends. Then they have wacko and crazy trips. I recommend this book to anyone really.
