John Krasinski and I have something in common, y'all.
I'm not surprised he's a Roald Dahl fan. I admit it makes me melt a little that we enjoyed the same books as kids. I was a Matilda girl myself (Miss Honey! ♥) but The BFG is another favorite. Actually, I think I most favored The Vicar of Nibbleswicke. I remember being quite impressed with myself when I was the only one in my fourth grade class who could pronounce the title of the book.
There were so many great books I read growing up. I was always a HUGE fan of all things Roald Dahl. Every book from James and the Giant Peach to The BFG to The Witches, nobody wrote more imaginative stories for kids. These worlds he created had the nonsensical appeal of Dr. Seuss, while at the same time, the characters were all written with wonderful complexities and enormous heart. It was a feast for any imagination! And with so many great books, short stories and poems to choose from, you could go on an adventure any day of the week!
