Roald Dahl [Quentin Blake] – The BFG – First UK Edition 1982
£225.00
A first edition, first printing of ‘BFG’ published by Cape in 1982. A very good book with one name and date to the front endpaper – browning to the page edges and some spotting. In a very good unclipped wrapper with some light edgewear to the top edge with one repaired tear to the rear panel.
The BFG by Roald Dahl is a whimsical children’s novel about a young orphan girl named Sophie who befriends the Big Friendly Giant (BFG). Unlike other giants who eat humans, the BFG is gentle and kind, catching dreams to spread to children. Together, Sophie and the BFG devise a plan to stop the other giants from terrorising the world; their adventure leads them to the Queen of England, who helps them save the day. The story is filled with imaginative language and heart-warming moments.
