Roald Dahl, Quentin Blake
James and the Giant Peach by Roald Dahl in magnificent full colour.
""Bigger and bigger grew the peach, bigger and bigger and BIGGER.""

Life isn’t much fun at all, until something peculiar happens at the bottom of his garden . . .
A peach at the very top of a tree begins to grow . . . and grow . . . and GROW! Inside are seven very unusual insects – all waiting to take James on a magical journey.
Reviews
It's a really good book but there are some questionable words in it. I really like the adventure and the characters. My favourite is James and the Old Green Grasshopper. My least favourite is the centipede because he is quite rude. I also like the word size.

It was interesting because it had ginormous bugs and I wanted to eat the peach which sounded sweet and nice tasty

At first I was scared of the ugly ladies who don't really treat James well. But then when they roll down the hill and the car gets squashed, it made me laugh lots. I like the descriptions of all the insects that James travels with... Even the spider sounds cool. My mum puts on funny voices which makes it even better. We read this book so quickly, I was surprised with the ending. But in a good way.

It was fiction and it was a good book. It’s not the best Road Dahl book I read but I liked it.

This book is written by the same person who wrote Charlie and the chocolate factory. I love how James made all his dreams come true with the magic beans. His mum and dad went to heaven like my grandma went there too. I love how he got away from his horrible aunts.

Because James became famous

I would recommend this book but it’s not the best one by Roald Dahl. My favourite part of the story was the ending when I read what all their new jobs were. I also liked that James had a little hut inside the peach stone.

I only watched the movie.

I found it fun because James with friendships with beetles who lived inside the peach and when they were in there, the peach started rolling and they went rolling with it.
