Love this book anyway and great to have it as an audiobook. Unfortunately there are no chapter names though, so can’t easily skip around to required poems.

Great book, no chapter names

This audiobook featured fantastic performances of classically dark and cheeky Dahl rhymes, excellent for car journeys. You forget the kind of brilliant turns of phrase he used: a whizzing, fizzing kettle of tales!

Loved Roald Dahl as a child so thought I'd give these a go. Love them but think some of the ruder ones have missed out (not really that rude- I mean we heard and laughed at them and survived to be decent adults!) so not sure how complete. Some of them were disappointing as not read as well as expected but absolutely loved the cheeky combination of Miriam and Roald.

Very good

Wonderful to hear these again, I always enjoyed the Prunella Scales version!
A treat to have them reawakened!

Joyous
