* In the illustrations, the BFG has light skin while the other giants have burnt brown skin. Well, of course they do; the other giants lounge around in the sun all day before going out at night for their meals, while the BFG stays in his cave to avoid them and only comes out at night to dream-hunt.

* When Sophie reads the labels on the dream bottles, many of them include AllJustADream endings, in which the dreamer wakes up to be told breakfast is ready. But presumably these would not be part of the dream itself? Still, not even the brainiest "proseffors" is understanding dreams.

* The BFG's breakfast at Buckingham Palace. At first they reason that as he is four times as tall as a six-foot human, his breakfast should be four times as large – but he eats the whole lot all at once, says that all that food was just "one titchy little bite", and asks for more. Of course, the BFG isn't just four times the ''height'' of a human: he's four times as large ''in all three dimensions'', meaning that they ought to have multiplied the size of his breakfast by 64, i.e. four cubed.
** Dahl was no stranger to the concept; in ''Literature/GeorgesMarvellousMedicine'', he noted the difference between a living thing growing in all directions as opposed to simply growing taller.

* Many of the dream bottles end with the dreamer waking up and being told breakfast is ready. Wouldn't that not be a part of the dream itself? It absolutely can be; ever have dreams where you wake up, start going through your morning routine, and then wake up for real? There you go.
