James and the Giant Peach - Roald Dahl

My son will be performing as the Centipede in a production of James and the Giant Peach in a few weeks, so I wanted to read the book.

Roald Dahl also wrote "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory", which was my favorite book as a kid.  James and the Giant Peach was equally strange, with interesting but odd characters.  Dahl is a great and imaginative writer, and I enjoyed this book!
