I is love this book.

Roald Dahl's clever tale is written in a winning combination of “langwitches”: common English and giant-speak. The frequency of nonsensical words only elevates the level of amusement, and the entertainingly expressive nature of the BFG makes this a choice book to read aloud. “The BFG” is better than “The Twits” and a wonderful introduction to Dahl's artful storytelling.
