The BFG by Roald Dahl



Sophie is an orphan who gets taken away by a giant.  

A Cute story about a little girl who saves other children and the giant who helps her.  I like when the Giant says that humans hurt other humans, but animals don’t kill each other, so he’d rather be a giant.

I was intrigued by the title.  Generally anything with the letter “B” and “F” have connotations that should not be discussed around children, but this mnemonic stands for “The Big Friendly Giant”.

P.S.  “Human beans” are what the giants eat, but not The BFG. 

P.P.S - I love Roald Dahl stories!
