Indulge your love of Roald Dahl's magical, madcap worlds by diving into your favourite stories, retold through letters, photographs, magic books, recipes and newspaper clippings and what inspired Dahl to write his stories. 'In an early first draft, the BFG was described as wearing black trousers tucked into black boots. However, Roald realised that this wasn't the right look, and he sent a pair of his own Norwegian-style sandals to Quentin Blake as inspiration for alternative footwear. The rest is history!' And pictured is a photograph of said footwear, Blake's illustrations, snippets and clippings and photographs and drawings and a whole scrapbook of fantastical foxy features. 80 very large pages, colour. 28.7 x 22.2cm, ages 6-8 years or avid collectors of children's books.
