Do you know what the BFG stood for before his publisher told him he had to think of other words for the acronym? Dahl wasn't joking either, not at all. This story is of a man's interest in a prepubescent girl. The first thing he does is enter her bedroom in the middle of the night, blow "dust" over her and kidnap her. Taking her away from the orphanage she lives in to the land of the extremely unfriendly giants who, in the original draft forced the little girl to look at their giant 'clubs'. But the BFG's different, he's friendly....grooming It all ends with the little girl giving the BFG kisses and living next door to him and everyone is very happy. Dahl sees himself as the BFG giving Sophie, children, a new way to think, different from human adults, who don't even believe in giants. It is an inventive story without doubt, and all fairy stories require you to absolutely suspend disbelief. Lots of them include sexual and violent elements which children either don't notice (sexual) or thoroughly enjoy (violent). When Disney gets hold of them, they lose both and become the anodyne Barbie-doll princesses (cue violins-in-the-background) we are used to. In that tradition, the BFG succeeds. In the mid-to-late 20thC there was less emphasis on paedophilia than there is now, and I wonder if this book could have been written at all in the 21stC. Ironically, this book is banned in some educational districts in the US for 'teaching poor moral values' and cannibalism. Ridiculous. Children laugh at those sort of things. I don't believe in banning books, but Dahl was an unpleasant character and it is wilful blindness to ignore the feet of clay our heroes sometimes have as we place laurel wreaths on their brows.Misogyny: Dahl's misogyny, especially in his adult stories, is quite extreme, and, in shades of Harper Lee and …

Don't gobblefunk around with words. This entire book was a gobblefunk of words. Snapperwhippers and babblement and crockadowndillies. My inner grumpy adult came out about 1/2 way through the book - just say what you mean! Meanings is not important, said the BFG. I cannot be right all the time. Quite often I is left instead of right. Yes, yes you were, Mr. BFG - you went left the entire book.Sophie, a little "human bean," gets up one night and spies from her window, a long spindly shape creeping around in the dark. Much to her horror, a real-life giant bounds up to her window and snatches her. He whisks her away to giant country where she learns that every night, giants steal humans for their dinner and would eat her in a heartbeat.Luckily, Sophie is stolen by the Big Friendly Giant (BFG) who truly is good, and kind, despite his propensity for murdering the English language. He would rather eat disgusting snozzcumbers than human beans and does his best to give children happy dreams. Sophie insists that the other giants must be stopped and quickly hatches a plan with the BFG - but the real question is, will the queen of England believe them?English aside, this was a very cute story. Sophie manages to be heroic without being precocious and the BFG's earnestness really cinched the plot. Audiobook CommentsI listened to the enhanced audio - which came equipped with sound effects and great characterizations. If you have a hard time with the grammatical errors and deliberate misspellings, listening to the book makes it much better.The 2018 Pop Sugar Reading Challenge - A childhood classic you never readYouTube | Blog | Instagram | Twitter | Facebook | Snapchat @miranda_reads

Two wrongs don’t make a right WHAT A BOOK IT WAS! What an ending it was! I can't control my emotions. I haven't felt anything like this before. I haven't read a children book like this. I am soo happy by reading this. I am soo in love with the characters. Or writing. Or everything which this book offered me. It took me little long to finish this because of my exams. Otherwise this book was soo good that I wanted to finish it in one sitting. Nevertheless, I am finished with this and I am very happy. I think if I will be in the mood of re-reading, I will choose this book. OVERVIEWSophie, an orphan, is taken away by a giant named BFG (Big Friendly Giant) as she sees him in the witching hour (a time when everyone is sleeping and giants show up). He takes her away because he is afraid that she will tell everyone and he will be in danger. BFG is a good giant. But his fellows aren't. They eat humans. But BFG don't. He considers it immoral. When Sophie learns this, she makes a plan with BFG to stop them. THINGS I LIKED=> BFG. I loved him. He is uneducated. Can't speak English correctly. No giant can as they have no means of education. But I loved how BFG speaks. That's what makes him soo cute and funny. => I liked that giants called human beings: 'Human Beans' hehehe... => Giants don't eat Greek people because they taste like grease hehehe...=> I liked the chapter named 'Dream'. That was pretty hilarious. I was laughing out loud while reading this chapter.=> BFG called helicopters 'Bellypoppers' hehehe...=> I liked how they captured the giants. That was pretty interesting. THINGS I COULDN'T LIKE=> This point is not much important but I felt little bad about it. I didn't like the history of giants. But I didn't care much about it after that ending. Still it should …

An animated adaptation was shown on television in 1989 with David Jason providing the voice of the BFG and Amanda Root as the voice of Sophie. It has also been adapted as a theatre performance.
The BFG tells her that she must stay with him forever, as no one can know of his existence. He tells her it's dangerous to leave the cave, as his neighbors are sure to eat her if they catch her.
The BFG is a Big Friendly Giant who catches dreams, destroys the bad ones and then blows the good ones into children’s ears while they are asleep.
