A review by lingualibri
The BFG by Roald Dahl

4.0

Reading this is very different as an adult. This book was one of my favorites when I was in 3rd grade. (When dad read to me, we definitely had a genre. Hint: Captain Underpants was also in that genre.) And while I definitely appreciate the silliness and linguistic backwardness of this story, my not-as-fun adult brain has too many irrelevant questions about giant anatomy, dream magic, and Roald Dahl physics.

All things considered, this is still one of my favorite children's stories.
