Roald Dahl: The Magic Finger

"SUDDENLY a sort of FLASH comes out of ME, like something ELECTRIC. IT JUMPS OUT and TOUCHES the PERSON who has made ME CROSS..." 

The Magic Finger is a whimsical and thought-provoking tale about an eight-year-old girl with a remarkable, uncontrollable power. When she gets angry—especially with her neighbors, the Gregg family, who love to hunt—her magic finger takes over, turning them into the very birds they were hunting. It’s a delightful story of silliness, wisdom, and humanity that teaches the value of all lives.
