I really wanted to give it 4 stars... But I have to be honest the story is not that good. The illustrations are very nice but this first story of Dahl is not that good. Is his first one, so we have to take that into consideration, but to be honest for this collaboration between Dahl and Disney

brothers I was expecting a little bit more.... or way more. Nevertheless the forward is interesting and the story is funny. Is a nice book for little children, but even for little children it can be way more.

Local notes

Dahl's first story, for Disney. Gus, a British WW-II fighter pilot, turned to look out on the wing of his plane during the Battle of Britain only to see an amazing sight: a little man, no more than six inches tall with horns growing from his head, drilling a hole in the plane's wing. What happened after that would change the war, and the world, forever.

Delightful anniversary hb edition.
