My first read by Roald Dahl ..and it is amazing.. I hated the headmistress right from when she was introduced and almost jumped in joy everytime something awful happened to her. Like serves you right you old lady :) So want to see the movie as well.
One day I would suggest my kids to start reading with this one.. <3
An absolute delight :)
