The BFG (Big Friendly Giant) was a book from children’s author Roald Dahl that came out in 1982.  It was dedicated to his daughter, who died of measles encephalitis at the age of 7.  I totally remember reading this book as a kid, but had forgotten all about it until I saw that a live action movie was coming out.  In the hands of Steven Spielberg and Disney, this should be fantastic.  Check it out!
