Amazon.co.uk
When poor James Henry Trotter loses his parents in a horrible rhinoceros accident, he is forced to live with his two wicked aunts, Aunt Sponge and Aunt Spiker. After three years he becomes "the saddest and loneliest boy you could find". Then one day, a wizened old man in a dark-green suit gives James a bag of magic crystals that promise to reverse his misery forever. When James accidentally spills the crystals on his aunts' withered peach tree, he sets the adventure in motion. From the old tree a single peach grows, and grows, and grows some more, until finally James climbs inside the giant fruit and rolls away from his despicable aunts to a whole new life. James befriends an assortment of hilarious characters, including Grasshopper, Earthworm, Miss Spider and Centipede--each with his or her own song to sing. Roald Dahl's rich imagery and amusing characters ensure that parents will not tire of reading this classic aloud, which they will no doubt be called to do over and over again! We'll just come right out and say it ... James and the Giant Peach is one of the finest children's books ever written.

Roald Dahl's rich imagery and amusing characters ensure that parents will not tire of reading this classic aloud, which they will no doubt be called to do over and over again! With the addition of witty black and white pencil drawings by Lane Smith (of The Stinky Cheese Man and Other Fairly Stupid Tales and The True Story of the Three Little Pigs fame), upon which the animation for the Disney movie was based, this classic, now in paperback, is bursting with renewed vigor. We'll just come right out and say it: James and the Giant Peach is one of the finest children's books ever written. (Ages 9 to 12)

I read this book for my creative writing class. We had to do an assignment where we read ten children's literature book. I was dreading the assignment, but, I found this book and I remembered it was good when I was a child. So I reread this book, it was even more enjoyable the second time. It is extremely creative and will teach your child some morals. Their is the death of parents and aunts within the book, so it might not be suitable for younger children. It would be a good book for adults to read to kids.

"James and the Giant Peach" was the first novel Ireally fell in love with as a boy. Roald Dahl's cruel beginningdidn't faze me -- it just let me know he wasn't going to pull any punches, and tell me a real story. When James' parents are trampled by a runaway rhinocerous, I shivered. And when I met the horrible Aunt Sponge and Aunt Spike, I trembled. And when they were run over by the giant peach, I cheered. Personally, I think J.K. Rowling and the Harry Potter books are essentially Roald Dahl enlarged; that's probably why I love the Potter books so much. The Dursleys are just like Aunt Sponge and Aunt Spiker, and Harry is just like poor James before he's rescued by the man with the magic worms. While I'm not particularly fond of the movie (why, oh why does Hollywood always change the plots of classic novels?), I did love the animation. Children will love this book, and all of Roald Dahl's works. If you've got a Potterhead who needs a new fix while he or she waits for the next novel, send them the original Dahl books. They'll thank you forever.

Years ago, my grade four teacher read this book to our class. My mother bought me the book to read along with her. I loved this tale of a boy who traveled in a big peach! This had my imagination going right from the start. James talks to bugs..who are personified etc. If you have children, read this to them...they will never forget you for it.
