This book was very cute. I picked it up at an estate sale, curious because of recent Roald Dahl censorship changes. As a child, I read BFG and James and the Giant Peach, and watched Matilda. This story was just as fun, and captured my inner-child again. It has pictures even!
I would love to see this turned into a movie, because the story really is amusing. My grandma kinda sucked when I was a kid, so I can relate to this kid basically wanting to kill his abuser.
The ending was amazing, and will stick with me for years. What a sentence!
