James and the Gaint Peach by Roald Dahl

James lives with his mom and dad and had a great life. One day a giant rhinoceros escaped from the zoo and ate James parents. Because of this he now lives with his two aunts and has a miserable life. One day James runs away and finds a person who gives him a bag of magic crystals and he accidentally drops them on to a peach tree. Suddenly a peach appears on the tree which doesn't happen very often. The peach grows and grows until it turns into a giant peach! James is very hungry and hasn't had food in many days. He was about to bite into the peach but then he saw a tunnel and decided to climb in . In the tunnel he finds different bugs and they will soon become his friends. Suddenly the peach starts rolling away and they are tumbling around in the peach--will they survive?

I thought the book James and the Giant Peach was great. I liked it because was very adventurous, and funny. I just couldnt put it down. There were some pictures on the side of the pages and I liked that because it was it showed what some of the characters looked like and it showed their emotions. It had awsome details like... " The hill was so high that from almost anywhere in the garden James could look down and see miles and miles across a marvelous landscape of woods and fields..." Its an exciting because you never know what will happen next. It suprised me often. You should read this book!!!
