![]() ![]() The BFG, however, is much nicer, and he spends his days catching dreams in Dream Country and his nights blowing them into the minds of human children. Her captor is the BFG – the Big Friendly Giant – who lives in Giant Country, scared of the other giants who are twice as big as he is and love nothing more than to eat “human beans”. Before she can process any of this, the beast spots her, and before she knows what’s happening, she is in the giant’s pocket being spirited away at great speeds to a place she could never have imagined. One night, unable to sleep, she peeks out of the window into the witching hour and across the street sees an enormous creature peering into bedroom windows and using a trumpet to blow something inside. Sophie is an orphan and has a horrible existence in an English orphanage. There seemed little that was more appropriate than another dip back into Roald Dahl with a small story about a big-hearted giant. ![]() ![]() Back to Dahl this week, as I’m away this weekend and wanted to finish up a short book before I went away so I could take a new one. ![]()
