Charlie And The Great Glass Elevator
This new edition features a fresh Quentin Blake cover, of the superb sequel to the ever-popular Charlie and the Chocolate Factory as well as a whole new exciting autobiographical end section about Roald Dahl and his world.
The BFG
The BFG is one of Dahl's most lovable character creations. Whether galloping off with Sophie nestled into the soft skin of his ear to capture dreams as though they were exotic butterflies; speaking his delightful, jumbled, squib-fangled patois; or whizzpopping for the Queen, he leaves an indelible impression of big-heartedness.
The Witches
The bond between the boy and his grandmother becomes the centrepiece of the tale--a partnership of love and understanding that survives even the boy's unfortunate transformation into a mouse. And once the two have teamed up to outwitch the witches, the boy's declaration that he's glad he's a mouse because he will now live only as long as his grandmother is far more poignant than eerie.
The Twits
Mr and Mrs Twit are an extremely nasty pair. So the Muggle-Wump monkeys and the Roly-Poly bird hatch an ingenious plan to give them just the ghastly surprise they rightly deserve! This edition has a great new Quentin Blake cover as well as a whole new exciting end section about Roald Dahl and his world.
Charlie And The Chocolate Factory

The lucky five who find a Golden Ticket in their Wonka bars will receive a private tour of the factory, given by Mr Wonka himself. For young Charlie Bucket, this is a dream come true.

He instructs James to use them in a position that would change his life for the better.

Will it gobble Billy too - or can he find a way to defeat the hungry beast?
