'A true genius . . . Roald Dahl is my hero' - David Walliams Phizz-whizzing new branding for the world's No.1 storyteller, Roald Dahl! Exciting, bold and instantly recognisable with Quentin Blake's inimitable artwork. The story of a little girl with magical powers. When someone makes her angry she zaps a punishment on them with her magic flashing finger! This edition has a great new cover, with illustrations by Quentin Blake, and some new facts about Roald Dahl and his world. Listen to THE MAGIC FINGER (with THE MINPINS ) and other Roald Dahl audiobooks read by some very famous voices, including Kate Winslet, David Walliams and Steven Fry - plus there are added squelchy soundeffects from Pinewood Studios! Look out for new Roald Dahl apps in the App store and Google Play- including the disgusting TWIT OR MISS! inspired by the revolting Twits.

My favourite person was the girl. She had a magic finger and when she didn’t like people she could use it to make bad things happen to the other people.

This is an amazing book because it is so funny and magical. My favourite characters are the family who turned into ducks. I liked the way they made silly quacking noises on the phone. I would definitely recommend it to everyone!

This book is about a family who love to go hunting geese and one day there are 4 geese who have human hands and the family have geese wings! I had put the magic finger on them all the only way to get back to normal was to make peace with the birds and never hunt again. Will the family accept this deal and become human again to change their habits and never hunt again or live a life in the outside world having to learn to be goose all from scratch? - Recommended for people who like hunting and animals
