Had to return audiobook lol

It was fun to revisit this classic! Roald Dahl has a delicious wit about him and that is in full play here. The illustrations also go well perfectly. Being a children's book, the tone felt a little too moralizing at times. I think that just comes with writing for kids, though. A really enjoyable read!
