For four years, James is treated as a slave, forced to do hard labour, beaten for hardly any reason, improperly ate, and forced to sleep on bare floorboards.One summer afternoon, James stumbles across a mysterious old man, who gives him magic green "crocodile tongues" which, when drunk with water, will bring him happiness and great adventures. On the way to the house, James spills the "tongues" onto a barren peach tree, which then produces a single peach that quickly grows to nearly the size of a house. The aunts then sell tickets to neighbours to see the giant peach.When night comes, the aunts send James to collect rubbish thrown out by the crowd; but he discovers a tunnel, which leads to secret room inside the peach's seed, band of human- sized, talking creatures (a grasshopper, centipede, earthworm, spider, ladybug, silkworm, and a glow-worm ). These then become James' company in his adventure. Upon his arrival, the Centipede bites through the stem of the peach, whereupon it rolls down the hill, crushing Spiker and Sponge on the way. It rolls through villages, houses, and a famous chocolate factory before falling off the cliffs into the sea. James and the bugs came out to find them floating in the sea, but manage to hold themselves on the delicious flesh of the peach. Hours later, the peach is surrounded by sharks. Using the Earthworm as hook, James and the others of the peach hook the five hundred seagulls to the peach from the nearby islands,Now, the peach crosses the Atlantic Ocean. At one incident… but in this excitement it falls into the ocean and is rescued by James. That night, thousands of feet in the air, the giant peach floats through mountain-like, moonlit clouds, where the friends discover the ghostly "Cloud-Men", who control the weather. As the Cloud-Men form hailstones to throw down to the world below, the Centipede insults them, and an army of Cloud-Men pelt the giant peach with hail. They escape and then encounter a rainbow which they smash through. One Cloud-Man pours a tin of "rainbow paint" onto the Centipede, briefly turning him into a statue before he is freed by a Cloud-Man who pours water on him. One Cloud-Man almost boards the peach by climbing down the silken strings tied to the stem, which the Centipede severs to release him. Thereafter the friends approach New York City; whereupon the military, police, fire department, and rescue services are all called, and people flee to air raid shelters and subway stations, believing the city is about to be destroyed.A huge passenger jet flies past the giant peach, and severs the silken strings connecting the seagulls to the peach, which is then impaled upon the tip of the Empire State Building. The people on the 86th floor at first believe the inhabitants of the giant peach to be monsters; but when James explains his story, the people come James and his friends as heroes. The remains of the giant peach are brought down to the streets, where it took by the town's children, and its seed is based as a mansion in Central Park, where James lives, ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Father's Dedicated Love to His Son, My Son Loves Reading Raul Dahl's Novels *by P***L on Reviewed in India 🇮🇳 on 25 July 2022* My son loves to read his novels and when he told me that papa I want books, I ordered immediately, what parents do for their children is less, God bless everyone ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ ABOUT JAMES AND THE GIANT PEACH *by N***A on Reviewed in India 🇮🇳 on 10 February 2019* The book "JAMES AND THE GIANT PEACH" is a great book that teaches us to have hope. In this book James is an orphan that lives with his two cruel aunts in a Ramshackle house and a desolate garden. But with a few magical seeds and a dead peach tree, James ' life is about to change forever. Roald Dahl is the author of this book that teach us to have perseverance and to never give up. I like this book because I love the animals and this story moves around animals. They are so funny with their peculiar characteristics. James ' two aunts are very funny although they were many mean and rude towards James. James lives with his aunts in a miserable condition. I felt bad for him because his mean ugly, aunts treated him badly. My favorite part is when the aunts were crushed under the peach. This book gives us the lesson of hope and friendship. It was a good experience to read this book. From now onwards i will always take care that i never become selfish.
