The Magic Finger: (Colour Edition) (Paperback)

The world’s number one storyteller, Roald Dahl was a prolific writer, creating some of the most well-known and well-loved characters in English literature, including the BFG, Willy Wonka and the Enormous Crocodile. Roald Dahl was also man of many faces - top children's author, sometime screenwriter (including, famously, the screenplay the James Bond spectacular You Only Live Twice) and a master of genre-defining 'twist in the tale' short-stories, a format he honed to glittering effect in a number of anthologies including the darkly memorable Kiss, Kiss.

From his iconic illustrations of The BFG and Matilda to Mr Stink with birds and beasts of all shapes and sizes along the way, Roald Dahl’s favourite illustrator Quentin Blake has been making us smile for more than half a century.
