i usually love roald dahl but this one really let me down. it was quite creepy the way mr hoppy did all that to get closer to a woman he didn't even know simply because he was "in love"

This is my all time favourite childhood book. I love the quirky story and the style Dahl writes in. The plot of the story is so unique and fun, I still love it at the age i am now.
I love how Dahl fit so much interesting ideas into just above 50 pages, Thats why it makes such a good read and i am willing to read it over and over again due to the fact i still find it entertaining.
I think this is my favourite book from him by far.
