Roald Dahl has always been a favorite author of mine。 I enjoy his whimsy and dark sense of humor。 I received this book set when I was a kid， I didn't read all 16- but the ones I did read， I read over and over。Rereading these books as an adult brought back some great memories。 These are my current thoughts:1。Matilda- 5✨ I love Matilda。 Always have， always will。2。Boy-4✨ Never read before， If an adult had read this to me， I think I would have LOVED this as a kid。3。 Going Solo- 3✨4。The Giraffe， The Roald Dahl has always been a favorite author of mine。 I enjoy his whimsy and dark sense of humor。 I received this book set when I was a kid， I didn't read all 16- but the ones I did read， I read over and over。Rereading these books as an adult brought back some great memories。 These are my current thoughts:1。Matilda- 5✨ I love Matilda。 Always have， always will。2。Boy-4✨ Never read before， If an adult had read this to me， I think I would have LOVED this as a kid。3。 Going Solo- 3✨4。The Giraffe， The Pelly， and Me- 4✨ I don't remember reading this before， I enjoyed it a lot！ Funny， sweet， short。5。George's Marvelous Medicine- 4。5✨ I loved this book as a kid。 Who doesn't love making a concoction？ Dahl gets kid's minds。6。 Fantastic Mr。Fox- 3✨ I remember LOVING this book as a kid。 7。 The Magic Finger-3✨ I read this as a kid but did not remember anything but the illustrations。 8。 Esio Trot-2✨ Never read before。 I'm sure I would have loved this as a kid。 As an adult， it's an interesting concept。9。Charlie and the Chocolate Factory-5✨ Yes！ One of my favorite books （still！）10。 Charlie and the Great Glass Elevator- DNF。 I loved this book as a kid。 I remember thinking。。。 Oh my gosh！ There's a sequel？？？ I didn't remember anything about it。 I tried so many times to read it， maybe made is 30% and quit 。 I had a headache。 The audiobook has a lot of shouting and yelling。11。 BFG- 4。5✨ first read to me by my teacher。 I was in LOVE！ The words Dahl uses are fantastic。 The first 50% easily 5 stars。 The second half where they are going back to London are more of a 4 for me。 12。The Witches- 5✨ LOVE13。 The Twits- 4✨ I think I read this as a kid。。。 I remember the illustrations。 14。 James and the Giant Peach-4。5✨ one of my favorites as a kid。 I love love love the atmospheric set up of James' life。 Dahl did a great job of expressing his hopelessness。 So it made complete sense to me as to why he'd run off with mutant insects and an arachnid。 I could read and read about their adventures。 When they get to NYC it's more of a 4 for me。15。 Danny and the Champion of the World- DNF。 Never read as a kid。 The first 20% was easily 5 stars。 I loved the set up and hearing about Danny and his father。 When we learn the father's 'secret' I lost interest。 16。 Billy and the Minpins-2。5 ✨ never read as a kid。 Roald Dahl is a great author。 I'll be passing these down to my daughter when she gets old enough。 📚 。。。more
