Story
The kingdom of Cornucopia was once the happiest in the world. It had plenty of gold, a king with the finest moustache you could possibly imagine, and butchers, bakers, and cheesemongers whose exquisite foods made a person dance with delight when they ate them. Everything was perfect - except for the misty Marshlands to the north, which, according to legend, were home to the monstrous Ickabog. Anyone sensible knew that the Ickabog was just a myth to scare children into behaving. But the funny thing about myths is that sometimes they take on a life of their own.

The BFG is no ordinary bone-crunching giant. He is far too nice and jumbly. It's lucky for Sophie that he is. Had she been carried off in the middle of the night by the Bloodbottler, or any of the other giants - rather than the BFG - she would have soon become breakfast. When Sophie hears that the giants are flush-bunking off to England to swollomp a few nice little chiddlers, she decides she must stop them once and for all. And the BFG is going to help her!

Being a kid can really stink. And no one knows this better than Greg Heffley, who finds himself thrust into middle school, where undersized weaklings share the hallways with kids who are taller, meaner, and already shaving. In Diary of a Wimpy Kid, author and illustrator Jeff Kinney introduces us to an unlikely hero. As Greg says in his diary: Just don't expect me to be all "Dear Diary" this and "Dear Diary" that. Luckily for us, what Greg Heffley says he won’t do and what he actually does are two very different things.

Loved by the whole family!
My 10, 8, and 7 year old kids all ask for just one more chapter! My husband and I are enjoying it, too. The narration and character voices are fantastic! The beginning has some emotionally heavy events and we were doubting our choice in making this our Christmas read aloud, but push through-it does become an epic adventure with cliffhangers at every chapter. You'll never think about lost items the same again!

I understand that each person's preference varies. However, this book reminded me of old toys, lost toys and everything that revolves around Hope.
I would recommend this book to anyone who wants to experience the joy of being a kid again.

A Magical, Wondrous World To The Other Side...
The Christmas Pig is definitely recommended for young children and families. It is a cute, adorable, and fun loving story about a friendship between a boy and stuffed pig animal going on an adventure together to rescue the boy's lost friend to another dimension. I read it last year for Christmas...when it comes to the holidays 2024, I would like to read it again. This book has everything: Humor, Drama, Adventure, and approach to fairy tales too. Recommended to listen to the audible version while reading the book at the same time to be captured and captivated by JK Rowling's unique imagination of the Christmas Pig!
