James and the Giant Peach - Roald Dahl

I am currently reading James and the Giant Peach, which is written by the author Roald Dahl. It is a fiction novel.

I chose this book because I have seen the movie and Roald Dahl is one of my favourite authors. 

James and the Giant Peach is about a young boy who escaped a violent, cruel home where he has been living with his two mean aunts. He escapes in a giant magical peach, and travels across the world with his new friends, and discovers the joy of freedom and friendship along the way.

The theme is that it’s not too late for James to make new friends, even though his parents have passed away and his aunts have been cruel and mean to him. He is still willing to make friends that care about him the way his aunts don’t. The story shows his perseverance because he does not give up even though he is in a tough situation.

My rating is 5 out of 5 ✰!
