The BFG is amazing he’s really big and there’s just a little girl and then there’s like all gooey stuff all over his care where he lives

This is a must read book for any level of readers. It is beautifully illustrated and keeps you engaged in the story and you would not want to stop reading until it's finished.

There is a girl called Sophie and she is scooped out of her bed by a giant’s hand. She learns about what giants eat, sleep and how mean they are. The giant that scooped her out of her bed, was named the BFG (big friendly giant) . Together they stop the other giants from eating humans all around the world.
I think it is a great book and adventurous of Sophie. My favourite character is Sophie. I would recommend it to anyone who likes fiction but not to dangerous books.

It was very exciting, loved Sophie

I liked it when he mixed up the words. My favourite words were: snozzcumbers, popfizzing and chiddlers!
I liked it when Sophie and the BFG talked to the Queen. It was really funny when they dropped snozzcumbers onto the mean giants at the end.
I would recommend this book because it would make them laugh so much!

I liked it because it is kind of like a life lesson. It is a life lesson because the giants kept on eating people and then they were trapped in a cage with only snozzcumbers to eat. I would recommend it to people who like fun and adventures.
