What I'm reading now...


I'm currently reading the BFG by Roald Dahl. He is a great author who wrote many books,including Matilda ,The Twits, andCharlie and the Chocolate Factory. 

   The BFG is the only friendly giant among many man-eating giants in Giant Country. In fact, BFG stands for Big Friendly Giant!

  A little girl named Sophie sees the large-eared BFG from her bedroom window in the orphanage and so he takes her to Giant Country so he won't  be put in a zoo.He teaches her the way a of a vegetarian in his land and shows her the repulsive Snozzcumber,the only thing that grows there.He even shows her his prized possessions: his dreams.Together,armed with only snozzcumbers and dreams, the runty giant and little orphan set out to warn the Queen of England and ultimately save the world.

 I really loved this book and would recommend it to all ages.
