Despite my love/hate relationship with Dahl, this may be one of his best books next to Matilda.

The IDEA. The CHARACTERS. I loved it!

Even though they are all flat characters, you love them––which is a rare find. I love how the insects cared for/mothered James, but when trouble arrived, they would ask him what to do. Interesting!

This is one to read to offspring or nieces/nephews.
