Episode 2 of MeDIDa, and we are discussing James and the Giant Peach.

James and the Giant Peach is both a 1961 book by Roald Dahl and a 1996 movie directed by Henry Selick. After James' parents die tragically, he is raised by his horrible Aunts. One day, something amazing happens: a giant peach grows on the old, dead peach tree. James ends up making his way inside the peach, coming face to face with giant bugs that will change his life.

This media is not intentionally about DID, but come along with me on this journey, and maybe I can convince you that it is a pretty good representation of it!
