Book review: The BFG

The cover of a children's book, The BFG.

The BFG is a humorous adventure book by Roald Dahl that will have you laughing every page.

I love The BFG because it’s about Sophie meeting the Big Friendly Giant and saving the world. It’s so entertaining and makes you never want to put it down.

I think it’s a great book because it teaches you about being different and even if you are different you can make a big difference. It’s also awesome because it’s all about teamwork and trying hard. 

It makes you emotional but has a happy and funny ending. It teaches you that the littlest (or biggest) things can make a big difference.

I give the book five stars and suggest it for kids aged 7–12.
