Summary
A brand new picture book inspired by Roald Dahl and illustrated by Quentin Blake
It's rotten when you're very small，
You hardly get a say at all。
It's "No！" and "Quiet！" and "That's enough！"
By golly， life - it can be tough 。 。 。
Inspired by the work of the world's number 1 storyteller， this picture book is a guide to growing up the Roald Dahl way， with gloriumptious illustrations by Quentin Blake。 A celebration of all the tremendous things children have in store - from adventure to inventions， chocolate cakes to rhino poo - along with a reminder that the very best grown ups are those who hold on tight to the kid inside。

As a Dahl enthusiast， naturally this came home with me。 In the vein of Oh， the Places You'll Go！， this is a quick little reminder that growing older doesn't mean growing up and I can easily see this sitting right alongside Seuss in graduation gift displays。 As a Dahl enthusiast， naturally this came home with me。 In the vein of Oh， the Places You'll Go！， this is a quick little reminder that growing older doesn't mean growing up and I can easily see this sitting right alongside Seuss in graduation gift displays。 。。。more

Quentin Blake's book， written in the vein of the work Blake completed with Roald Dahl， is a story in rhyme that encourages children to be bold， courageous， and curious。 The theme is applicable to children， who will find Blake's illustrations and the rhyme hysterical， but I can also see Never Grow Up as a fun graduation gift， or even a reminder to those of us adults who are too concerned with work， social media， the daily grind， etc。 to remember to have fun and explore our world。 Quentin Blake's book， written in the vein of the work Blake completed with Roald Dahl， is a story in rhyme that encourages children to be bold， courageous， and curious。 The theme is applicable to children， who will find Blake's illustrations and the rhyme hysterical， but I can also see Never Grow Up as a fun graduation gift， or even a reminder to those of us adults who are too concerned with work， social media， the daily grind， etc。 to remember to have fun and explore our world。 。。。more
