The BFG by Roald Dahl

The BFG

by Roald Dahl

The well-loved story of a big friendly giant who spirits a child out of bed to the land of the child-eating giants. This edition has a great new cover by Quentin Blake as well as new author biography.

The BFG is full of friendship, dream-catching, adventure, and ethical dilemmas. It’s the kind of children’s book that grows with the reader, revealing more layers as we age. It was a real treat to revisit this book —- like reading it for the first time. And I’m glad I picked up the audiobook version, because David Walliams is an absolutely brilliant narrator.
