Danny the Champion of the World

Two wrongs don’t make a right in the BFG has to do with giants eating people but in Danny it has to do with paching. In the begining Danny’s dad was poaching and Danny knew it was wrong.

Danny’s father never gave up feeding his family. he can’t go out and buy pheasants because he doesn’t have a lot of money. That’s why the reader really isn’t mad at Danny’s father.   :)

I got that connection because it sends the same message that the BFG never give up to get rid of the giants and Danny’s father never gave up poatching. they both have things in common. here is some of them they both end happy both like the adults. and both fund out secerets.       

Danny’s father never gave up feeding his family. He can’t go to the store and by pheasants because he doesn’t have lot’s of money.

The theme that I found in Danny the Champion of the World was “Never Give Up”. It is similar to the BFG because the BFG and Sophie never gave up trying to stop the giants from eating children and Danny never gave up trying to complete his plan. I can connect to it in my life because one time in the olympics I thought something was to0 hard but I never gave up trying and I learned if you never give up you can achieve anything!
