Possibly my favourite Dahl!

I was a big Roald Dahl fan as a child, and after really enjoying Wes Anderson's adaptation of Fantastic Mr. Fox, I had to read it. The kid inside of me enjoyed it. The adult realized nothing is ever so simple.

Loved it. It's fast it's quippy it's imaginative in an everyday sort of way that still remains to be the most whimsical storytelling I've ever heard. He's a genius with writing. 
It doesn't explain itself or try to be too moral focused and it's fun. 
Also great narrator.
