Roald Dahl Collection 16 Books Box Set

This collection is such a great find. What I love about Roald Dahl is how well he captures the way kids see the world. At that 8–12 age, things tend to feel very black and white: good vs. bad, fair vs. unfair. And his characters totally reflect that. Think of Miss Trunchbull vs. Miss Honey: no confusion about who to root for. But then he also gives us more complex characters, like Willy Wonka, who’s strange, brilliant, and kind of unsettling... but ultimately a good person. There’s more to unpack, and kids really respond to that.Dahl's stories have this deep sense of justice, too. Cruelty is called out, unfairness feels outrageous, and things usually resolve in a way that feels right. It’s been so much fun revisiting these with my son. They’re just as wild and funny as I remembered and now I can appreciate how intentionally they’re written for the way kids actually think and feel.

This Roald Dahl Collection is an absolute treasure for any child's bookshelf—or even for adults who grew up with these stories. I bought this set for my 9-year-old, and it’s been a wonderful journey down memory lane for me while introducing him to the wild, witty, and sometimes wicked world of Roald Dahl.The collection includes beloved titles like Matilda, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, James and the Giant Peach, and The BFG. Each book is packed with imaginative plots, quirky characters, and just the right mix of humour and mischief. They’ve sparked a real love of reading in my child—he even reads some aloud to his little sister!The paperback set is neatly packaged, and the books are just the right size for young readers to handle. The fonts are clear, and the classic Quentin Blake illustrations really bring the stories to life.Pros:✔️ A perfect starter library for ages 7–12✔️ Inspires imagination, empathy, and curiosity✔️ Includes multiple bestselling titles in one set✔️ Great value for the number of books included✔️ Wonderful for bedtime or independent readingCons:❌ Paperbacks are a bit delicate—store carefully❌ Some stories have dark or cheeky humour (parents should be aware)Roald Dahl had a magical way of understanding children’s minds.

Best books. Nice set.

Fantastic gift to my children. It was packaged very well and with care and came in perfect condition.

A wonderful author and special gift for my young grandkids just learning to read. I’ll be reading to them for awhile at ages 5 & 6.
