(2) 4-6 Illustrated by Quentin Blake. Nine-year-old Danny, schooled by his father in the art of poaching, foils the disagreeable Mr. Hazell. The story's finest aspect is the mutual devotion of father and son; the rest is pure farce. Dahl's classic story is now available in a hardcover edition that includes an interview with the author.
