some more roald dahl family read-a-loud fun with,
the bfg....the big friendly giant.
a story of giants, dream chasing, snozzcumbers and adventure!
the bfg is a story of a 24-foot tall giant,
with superhuman hearing, immense speed,
long dream catching nets and a home filled with jars of dreams.
unlike his 9 man-eating giant neighbors who spend their nights
snatching-up and eating sleeping children,
the bfg spends his nights catching and spreading dreams
and joy to children around the world.
our butterfly and fishing nets were perfect for chasing dreams.
twinkling swirling dreams filled with adventure, treats and all our wildest imaginations.
can i just say how much fun it is to have little jane
joining us in our adventures now?
as you can see, she was quite captivated and imaginative in her make believe dream catching!
since the bfg doesn't eat sleeping children,
his menu consists only of giant country snozzcumbers.
of course they aren't nearly as tasty as our own garden grown cucumbers,
but we had some fun in the garden gathering snozzcumbers for the bfg.
oh and when coupled with frobscottle pop they create some real smelly whizzpoppers (farts).
then it was time to go on our hunt for the 9 man-eating giants,
fleshlumpeater,
bonecruncher,
manhugger,
childchewer,
gizzardgulper,
maidmasher,
bloodbottler,
butcher boy...
and one other who surprised us while on our hunt...
the daddy giant!
luckily the scary giant in our backyard
turned out to be a big friendly giant instead...
happy reading and adventuring friends!
