Some school I want to show you

I want to share a book report with you. I JUST finished it:

James and the Giant Peach is an exciting 126 page adventure fiction set in England, by Roald Dahl.

James' parents were killed when he was just four years of age. He was then sent to his Aunt Sponge's and Aunt Spiker's home. There, he was badly treated and beaten for no apparent reason.

One day, he was sitting in the garden and an old man came to him from out of the bushes. The old man gave him a bag of green stuff, and James was told to put them in a large jug of water with ten strands of his hair and drink it all. As James ran to the house he tripped and fell, the bag burst open and all of the little green things wriggled out into the ground. Little did he know, that the disaster would become the adventure of a life time.

James' Aunts told him to chop some wood.

He picked up the chopper and was just about to start chopping away when he heard a shout behind him that made him stop and turn.

"Sponge! Sponge! Come here at once and look at this!"

"At what?"

"It's a peach!" Aunt Spiker was shouting.

"I think you might be mistaken, my dear Spiker. That miserable tree never has any peaches on it."

"There's one on it now, Sponge! Look for yourself!"

The peach grew to about the size of a house. Aunt Sponge wanted to eat it but her sister, Spiker talked her out of it by telling her that if they showed off their huge peach; they could make a bunch of money from it.

That night, Sponge and Spiker was counting their money while James was picking up all the garbage the crowd left behind earlier. While James was picking up the trash he found a hole in the side of the peach. He looked inside, he crawled in. Farther and farther he went till he bumped his head on the pit. Then he found that there was a door in the pit, he pushed it, and it swung open.

Before he had time to look up and to see the creatures around him he heard one of the creatures tell the others to see who was here. James had never saw colossal spiders,ladybugs,grasshoppers,centipedes,earthworms,glow-worms, or silkworms before.

Next morning, he woke up to his new friends shouting and the peach lurching. The Centipede was biting through the stem of the peach so they could roll down the steep hill James lived on. Finally the stem was cut through, and that's where James' and his friend's adventure began.

I hope this makes you curious enough to borrow it from the library and read it. It really is a good read. I loved this book, There are more books like this by the same author.
