As a kid, I absolutely loved Roal Dahl!

We tried the BFG but that had some stuff that was a little scary, plus we lost the book before we managed to finish it. I'm hoping this one has less man-eating giants.

I distinctly remember reading “witches”, and getting a bit shaken by the ending, just as a heads up

Thanks for the heads up! Normally I check out common sense media, they recommend ages 9+ for The Witches and mention that it can be pretty scary. I think we will avoid it for quite a while.

I didn’t know about Common sense media, nice initiative!
