James and the Giant Peach
Feb. 18-Mar. 6, 2011
Adapted by David Wood
Based on the book by Roald Dahl

From the author of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, comes a great story, full of imagination.

One dark night, a mysterious man gives James Trotter an unexpected gift... a bag of glowing, wriggling lights and a promise of magic. When the lights break free, something amazing happens: on a long-dead tree, a single peach begins to grow and grow and grow. Little does James realize that the giant peach will become a magical escape from his ghastly Aunt Sponge and Aunt Spiker.

James and his new found insect friends embark on an extraordinary journey that takes them halfway around the world. Along the way there are dangers and excitement, friends and enemies, music and laughter.

Will James survive the journey and find the new life he longs for?

Explore James and the Giant Peach with the Des Moines Public Library.
