The Big Freaking Giant! I loved this book growing up. Roald Dahl is a genius!
Astrid Lim
As usual, Roald Dahl has successfully entertained me through his wonderful imagination. This sweet story about a Big Friendly Giant and a little girl named Sophie who tried to stop nine bad crazy giants to eat children has everything delightful for children (and adults who love children books lol). I can't wait to see the movie soon! ...more

This isn't my favorite of Dahl's books, but it still combines cute and funny in an excellent way (although it has less of the making-fun-of-adults that I appreciate in his other books). ...more
