would you recommend a roald Dahl book for nearly 5yr old? I remember enjoying the magic finger as a young child but cant remember the exact age.
any recommendations for where to start would be greatly appreciated.

Came.on to recommend Georges Marvellous Medicine but I see it has been.

I've been reading George's marvellous medicine and fantastic mr fox out loud to a four year old and a six year old recently, one or two chapters a night. They have really enjoyed listening to them.

I had some when a child but not at five I think, least the stories were read TO me at night but were not books if look at alone. Could you start with his poetry (and others) maybe? Shorter stuff.
