London: Jonathan Cape, 1982. First printing. Near fine in near fine jacket..

Ably illustrated by Quentin Blake, Dahl's frequent collaborator, whose frenetic gestural drawings quiver with life and indelibly define the characters. 9'' x 5.75''. Original grey cloth boards with gilt-stamped spine. In original unclipped (£6.50) pictorial dust jacket, illustrated by Quentin Blake. 224 pages. Some toning to extremities.
