Review: The BFG

The BFG by Roald Dahl
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I like this book, it's a very heart warming, sweet, pleasant book.

It's written for kids, but I loved it as an adult. Dahl thinks of himself as the BFG, opening up little Sophie's mind to great new ideas, criticizing humans for being the only species to kill their own, challenging humans' self centered world-view "You humans think you're so clever, only believing in what you see. Till yesterday you didn't even believe Giants existed."

I highly recommend this book to kids. If you wanna teach your read vocabulary and ideas, give them all sorts of books to read. But if you wanna teach them _how to learn_ vocabulary and ideas, give them this book!
