James and the Giant Peach begins when a giant peach magically appears on an old tree near the house where James lives with his two dreadful aunts. When he finds a secret way inside the peach, James makes his escape with some of the greatest pals a kid can have, six very funny but fractious bugs, who must learn from James about how to get along. In the peach — which is first a ship and then an airship — they cross the Atlantic Ocean to their new home in Central Park.
