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.

A little girl named Sophie who is an orphan is being kidnapped by a giant. This giant takes her to his home. There she figures out that other giants are eating people. She tried to make the BFG (a good giant) stop any other man eating Giants. But the BFG wouldn't listen he was too scared to face the Giants. So Sophie made a plan that involved The BFG. She went to the Queen of England and there she asked the Queen of England to help her get rid of the man-eating Giants forever. So the Queen of England got the head of the Air Force and head of the army. She told the head of the Air Force and head of the army to get rid of man-eating Giants forever. And those two men did exactly what they were told.

Roald Dahl is great with all of his stories, but this is his best one yet

This is the world's best giant book. Way better than Jack and the beanstalk. d=

This book is about a girl who finds out that giants are real things. She is then taken away from her foster home by the giant who turns out to be the BFG. Both of these characters plot to make sure that the other giants will never eat humans again. Once they succeed, they are honored by so countries around the world.

I like that the ending was a twist because the girl was just telling a story. I also really liked that the BFG was very kind. I would definitely recommend this book.

This book is really amazing.My teacher Mrs.Demo says it's the best book in the world and we should read it.I love Roald Dahl.He is my favorite author and he wrote books like Matilda,James and the Giant Peach,just to name a few.I hope you will love this book cause Roald Dahl writes books that are so amazing that they will blow your mind and let your imagination run wild and crazy.

This is about an orphan named Sophie who finds the BFG (big friendly giant), and he rescues her from her orphanage. Then, the twosome go on amusing quests and adventures, and the BFG tells Sophie all about his life in Giant Country. READ THIS BOOK!
