Wonderful

My son and I listened to this on a long car trip and we were both enthralled! It's DAHL after all, so we had high expectations but it blew us away. The reader puts on all the voices and reads with the right amount of emotion. The 2 1/2 trip felt like 5mins!

Amazing family listening

Can’t recommend this enough. Peter Serafinowicz’s narration is perfect for this beautiful story. I was instantly transported back to when I read the book as a child but this time brought my young song along to share in the magic. We have revisited Danny, his Dad and that little caravan many times now and we adored each visit as if it were to treasured family friends.
