“Those who don’t believe in magic, will never find it.”✨
2.5! It was a short little audiobook, but it was PHENOMENAL to say the least. Each book I read I am more and more convinced I will have to buy these for my classroom next year.

This is an old favourite for me, although more for the potential of the core idea - tiny people living in every tree (and potentially cloud) than for the story itself

Beware! Beware! The Forest Of Sin!
None come out, but many go in!
Aren't Roald Dahl's books magical??
I treated myself to the fill collection for my birthday and decided to read Billy and the Minpins tonight.
I have never read this book so I was seeing this with fresh eyes and oh boy could you imagine being young and meeting people who lived in the trees behind your house growing up. You could visit them. They use the birds as transport. This is just a magical story that I couldn't put down.
I loved the Minpins so much and wish we could have learned more about them. A great start to my Roald Dahl journey. I look forward to the next one

The story was sweet, but the illustrations were absolutely out of this world brilliant!

- Plot- or character-driven? Character
- Strong character development? N/A
- Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
- Flaws of characters a main focus? No

Il Roald Dahl fuori di testa che si inventa mondi in un metro quadro e li popola di follie buffe e spaventose.

Firstly, this is a book that tells kids not to listen to their mothers. And where did he pluck the devil out of that then vanished for the rest of the story? also when little Billy hears that the Minpins are in danger from the monster his first thought is, I'll kill that. Worried about what little Billy grew into.
Perhaps it is because I am an adult reading this for the first time but I fount the story boring. Having said that I had enjoined James and the Giant Peach as a child, trying to read it as an adult I had to DNF it. The only part I enjoined of this was the illustrations.
