There’s a reason this is a classic. Dahl captures the ridiculous so well.

I've always loved Roald Dahl. I read almost all of his books when I was a little kid, but, somehow, I never got to this one. I loved it just as much as I loved the others! This man had quite the imagination on him and it still leaves an impression on me, even though I'm in my 30s now.

Revisiting Roald Dahl as an adult makes me appreciate his untethered imagination anew. I get the sense that he’s respectful of children and therefore writes to them, not about them.
