So I&#8217;ll mention <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/James_and_the_Giant_Peach\"><i>James and the Giant Peach<\/i><\/a> as a book from my favorite author. It&#8217;s not my favorite (that one is also already mentioned), but it&#8217;s a wonderful story (like so many others of his). When my sister was having some&#8230; troubling times due to&#8230; a couple of women who sort of resembled Aunt Sponge and Aunt Spiker, I tried to help cheer her up by reading from <i>James and the Giant Peach<\/i>. It was a wonderfully cathartic thing for both of us. \ud83d\ude42 <\/p>\n<p> The illustrations by Nancy Ekholm Burkert from the book are probably my favorite of all of Dahl&#8217;s books. Simply beautiful. I enjoy Quentin Blake and associate his art with Dahl, but the original artwork for <i>James<\/i>, <i>Charlie<\/i> 1 &#038; 2, and <i>Fantastic Mr. Fox<\/i> are the Right and Proper illustrations for those books.
