What have you enjoyed about the book?
really enjoyed reading this book for many reasons. One of the main reasons is that it made me laugh out loud on several occasions. Some of the characters are so irresponsible and watching them make mistakes and end up in tricky situations made me chuckle. Also, the ending of the story made me smile. I love stories which have happy endings, and this book has a great ending.

Why should someone else read it? Recommended readers age?
Anyone who has already read any of Roald Dahl’s previous books should read this book right now. It has similar humor to James and the Giant Peach and Matilda. 8 years old upwards would be exceptionally excited by this wonderful book. Get reading!
