The book that my parents used to read is James and the giant peach.
James and the giant peach is about a little boy called James and he lives with his two horrible aunts after his parents die. He meets a man and he gives him magical bugs. He spills the bag and a bug goes onto the peach tree and the peach grows really big and James shows his aunts and they turn it into a attraction and they get money from the people that pay to see it. James eats a hole into the peach and finds a bunch of bugs in there.
Also this is a book turned into a movie ( so that 2 thing completed in this post
