Evidently not even Roald Dahl could resist the acronym craze of the early eighties. BFG? Bellowing ferret-faced golfer? Backstabbing fairy godmother? Oh, oh ... Big Friendly Giant! This BFG doesn't seem all that friendly at first as he creeps down a London street, snatches little Sophie out of her bed, and bounds away with her to giant land. And he's not really all that big when compared with his evil, carnivorous brethren, who bully him for being such an oddball runt. After all, he eats only disgusting snozzcumbers, and while the other giants are snacking on little boys and girls, he's blowing happy dreams in through their windows.
一个瘦瘦的、透顶的、总是带着一脸狡黠的笑的老头,无论他跑到美国、英国、荷兰、德国、法国、澳大利亚或新西兰,当然现在也包括中国,随便敲开一家有小孩子的屋子说:“啊,我走累了,我的车用光了汽油,可以请我进来喝杯茶吗?”孩子们会立刻尖叫着,欢呼雀跃地迎他进门,因为没有孩子不认识这个老头,他就是那个让大人们有点害怕、让孩子们疯狂着迷的罗尔德·达尔。
在“巫师出没的时刻”,好心眼儿巨人来到孩子们睡觉的地方。他把捕捉来的好梦放在一支长长的小号里,从窗口悄悄伸进去,轻轻一吹,没想到小女孩索菲看到了这一切,于是好看的故事开始了。
好心眼儿巨人把索菲一把抓走,整整跑了大半夜,最后来到了一个连英国皇家空军的地图也没有标注的地方-巨人国。天哪!巨人国里有各种各样可怕的巨人,有吃人肉块巨人、嘎吱嘎吱嚼骨头巨人、肉油滴滴答巨人、大吃特吃内脏巨人、喝血巨人,他们都有一个共同的爱好一吃人!后来会发生什么事情呢?请跟随好心眼儿巨人和小女孩索菲去经历一次神奇的历险吧。
