It has always been James (James and the Giant Peach) It is one of the first books I remember reading as a little girl, the detail in his story really brought James and the insects to life in my mind! Both my children have read it and now my little 18month old grandaughter will have the pleasures
Veruca Salt because it such a brilliant name and has always stuck in my mind since reading the book as a child. Also she gets her comeuppance by going down the rubbish chute which is exactly what the horrible brat deserved!
I love Willy Wonka and his eccentric personality. I like that he says what he thinks and he is happy being himself and not trying to conform and he is so creative!
I love Charlie Bucket - he is so optimistic and positive even though his life is hard and in the end he gets what he deserves. Good thing comes to those who wait.
BFG without doubt, such a lovely character and a lovely book to read with my grandson. He asked me recently ‘do you know who my favourite book writer is Nanna’? and then replied ‘ Roald Dahl’ I was so impressed as he is almost 6 years old and he loves reading
My favourite charachter is the BFG because it teaches you that no matter how big you are or how you look nothing is as it seems and he is the friendliest giant ever.. #NeverJudgeABookByItsCover
We read many Roald Dahl books to our children and I find it amazing that we are now reading them to our Grandchildren too. I love to read them Matilda, as she loves books, is smart, caring and a great example to children today.
