Sinossi
«Dahl possiede il rarissimo dono di far scomparire tutto il mondo che sta intorno al lettore».Goffredo Fofi«Maestro della short story, a lungo considerato solo uno scrittore per ragazzi... iperbolico, beffardo, divertente, la sua massima virtù è dinamica, è la velocità. Ci si accorge di come e quanto la sua consistenza sia un meccanismo perfetto, esplosivo al pari di una bomba». Franco Cordelli, Corriere della Sera«Roald Dahl parteggia sempre per i bambini e ha creato tanti piccoli personaggi con speciali poteri che si vendicano delle prepotenze degli adulti o li puniscono per le loro cattive azioni». Donatella ZiliottoJames è torturato dalle perfide zie Spugna e Stecco, ma ecco che un vecchietto gli promette una vita meravigliosa se si berrà una caraffa con certi magici cosini verdi dentro. Cose favolose, incredibili capiteranno invece al posto suo a chiunque essi incontreranno, nel caso lui li perdesse. Così purtroppo avviene. E i cosini incontrano una Pesca, una Coccinella, un Lombrico, una Cavalletta, un Millepiedi, un Baco da Seta, una Lucciola, un Ragno, e cose meravigliose accadono, eccome, ci pensa la Pesca Gigante. Se per prima cosa spiaccicasse zia Spugna e zia Stecco? E poi, e poi...

A bad trip on the fun dip. From what I remember from the movie I saw during rainy-day recess in first grade, there's giant fruit, several oversized scary bugs and green glowy wormy things. It was so surreal and scary to me at the time that I've avoided the movie ever since. As I (finally) read the bo Leggi tutto
I read this so many times as a child and I was always so fiercely jealous of James. James is a dreamer. He has a boring life and one day he gets the opportunity to experience something weird and surreal. Everyday breaks away from mundanity and becomes something exciting and unusual. James makes frie Leggi tutto
Book Review James and the Giant Peach by Roald Dahl is a very creative story built for everyone of all ages to enjoy. I think of it as a cross between 3 things: (1) Dr. Seuss, (2) Jack and the Beanstalk and (3) Harry Potter. 4 of 5 stars to this lovely keepsake! I had to read this book, wh
When I was in third grade, the first great crush of my life, Scott Murphy, stood up on the picnic table outside of the trailer that housed my third grade class and instead of reading his lines -- James' words -- from his paperback copy while we were all trying to rehearse the chapter we were suppose Leggi tutto
As always, Roald Dahl spins the most fantastic wonderful tales for children and James and the Giant Peach is up there with his greatest ones. It is also a wonderful animated film. Don't deprive your children of fantastic stories such as this one - there are one in a million!
ENGLISH ( James and the Giant Peach ) / ITALIANO «Until he was four years old, James Henry Trotter had a happy life. He lived peacefully with his mother and father in a beautiful house beside the sea. There were always plenty of other children for him to play with, and there was the sandy beach for him Leggi tutto
James has quite an adventure once he breaks free from those despicable aunts. Love Centipede with his shoe obsession and the NYC adventures. No wonder this is a classic.
What I was hoping would be a magical tale that reminded me of my childhood turned out to be an incredibly dull but also problematic book by Dahl - yet again! Things I liked - the idea that we shouldn't kill insects and bugs because we are scared of them, and there is a nice moment with the Spider who Leggi tutto
