5) James and the Giant Peach
Margaret Wild November 15, 2009Year 3, we hope that you have been enjoying the story of James and the Giant Peach. We think that you’ll agree that this book is about more than James and the peach. If you could change the title of this book, what would you call this story?
* If you were to rewrite a part of the story, which part would it be? What would you change? How would you make it different?

I think the title shoud be James and the big peach.

I would make the title ‘James and his Unusual Friends’ because James’ new friends do things that humans usually do.
November 18th, 2009 at 9:35 pm
I think the name of this book should be The Unexpected Surprise because there are so many surprises in this book.
November 18th, 2009 at 9:37 pm
I think the title should be “James And His Weird Friends” because it is very unusual to have bug friends.

I reckon I’d change the title to either one of these titles:
The Adventures of James & the Giant Peach:James Meets the Giant insects
Lost in a Peach
The Friend-Peach
Lost at Sea: Trapped in a Peach
I would re-write the bit where Mr & Mrs Trotter get eaten by a rino to them geting eaten by either one of these ideas:
A T-Rex
A lion
A mouse
A Building that has had nuclear waste dumped & has been mutated.
or 2 Villans from Ben 10 that have made themselves grow. The Villans would be Villgax & Kevin 11.
Hope you think it’s funny!
Paris ;D

I would call it The Boy And His Friends because,it’s a boy and he has friends that’s why i chose this tittle.

If I was the author I would name the book James and the great adventures of the peach. luke

I could call it James and His Friends.
I would change when the shark bites the peach so that instead a whale swallows the peach. :0

If I had to change the title i would call it James And He’s best friends.

I would call this story James and fantastic Peach!
I would rewrite the part when the sharks are eating the peach away and I would say a ship is coming and they can’t move. So the ship is going to crash into them and they will be very ill.

1. I had the chance to change the title I wound call the book:
• James, the Giant Peach and all of James friend.
• James and his friend
• James and the funny adventure
• James and the escape
I will think of calling it something with the name James in it because James is the main character.
2. I would rewrite a part it will be the song because I do not like it at ALL!!
3. If I changed the song I will change the part of when it is gross like when it says the part when it eats all the gross stuff.
4. I will make it different by putting food instead of the worms and al the other animals

I would change the title to ‘James and the great peach’ because it was a terrific peach by growing in chapter seven.
I would rewrite the part of the story when he got all of the seagulls instead of using the earthworm James could’ve caught some fish.

I would name the book ‘James and the Giant Peach’, ‘The Boy with Magic Beans’ because the man that gave Jack those beans they were magic, and if you read ‘James and the Giant Peach’ you would find it in chapter 3. I would change the part in chapter 22 in James and the giant peach to James still having a bit more magic beans so James could use them on the birds and that James wouldn’t have to get five hundred and two birds.

If I changed the title I would change it to:
James and the magical crystals.
I would change it to James and the James and the magical crystals because the crystals made the peach grow
and grow and grow.Thats how James got involved and the insects.
Instead of the old man giving James the crystals I would change this part by writing this:
In the dark cold night James was left alone by his bad aunties.
He started to get cold and then he tried to find somewhere to sleep then he tripped over something glowing and it looked like some kind of crystal.But it hard to see he then found out it was magical.
