James and the Giant Peach

Author: Roald Dahl

Summary: A neglected boy crawls through a tunnel into a giant peach that grew in his backyard and befriends some insects whom he travels in the peach with across the ocean. 

Personal thoughts: I felt sorry for James that he had to be raised by very abusive aunts and yet I admired his courage to befriend some insects and take a risky trip into a huge fruit with them. We all know that you can't truly take a trip with bugs in a fruit, but it's a very cute and funny story with a very funny ending, which if I said, would spoil everything.
