A review by amalipulan
The BFG by Roald Dahl
4.0
I died laughing at the Dream Labels part and came back to life to write a review about this book.
I'm beginning to grow out of these children books, much to my disappointment, for I have really enjoyed them for the past 14 years. Also, I honestly don't think that I will be ready to read YA like Divergent series, and stuff related to it.
Sophie is an orphan who can't sleep one night because of the moonbeam that shines on her face. When she is trying to close the curtains, she looks out of the window and her eyes meet a colossal creature, a GIANT. She catches him blowing a trumpet full of substances unknown into a children's bedroom. She later finds out that the substance is actually a... dream.
Along with the BFG (the dream-catcher), they try to stop the other nine giants from further consuming other human beings (or to them known as the human beans) by seeking help from the Queen.
Here's an excerpt of the Dream Labels part I talked about:
I is making myself a marvelus pair of suction boots and when I put them on I is abel to walk strate up the kitshun wall and across the ceiling. Well, I is walking upside down on the ceiling when my big sister comes in and she is starting to yell at me as she always does, yelling wot on earth is you doing up there walking on the ceiling and I looks down at her and I smiles and I says I told you you was driving me up the wall and now you has done it.
