- This book is a classic written by Roald Dahl and illustrated by the great Quentin Blake
- It is an interesting tale about a young boy called Billy who one day dreams of owning his own sweet shop. After a tale of twists and turns he ends up owning the building he loved so much.
-It is light hearted and a nice story to go back to and read occasionally as it has remained in my memory since I was little.
-I am a great fan of Quentin's illustrations, and this book doesn't let you down. The characters' movements and quirks are vivid and exciting.
-The scratchy, loose, blotchy technique is a fantastic principle of illustration and her style is unique against any other illustrator I have ever come across.
