The BFG (The Big Friendly Giant) is a 1982 children's book written by British novelist Roald Dahl.This one was less story and more silly wordplay and fantasy. Towards the end it gets into a storyline, but at least the first half is mainly just a conversation between the BFG and Sophie. It is fun. The storyline is simple : the giants eat human beans and BFG and Sophie help in destroying their plans with the help of the Queen.
