What this book is about
Roald Dahl's short picture book for children follows a girl with a magic finger that activates when she gets really angry — most disastrously when aimed at her neighbors who love to hunt. Dahl's characteristic black humor and moral energy are compressed into one of his most satisfying shorter works.
