The Magic Finger

by Roald Dahl   |  Ages 8-11
The Magic Finger
The Magic Finger

Family becomes birds; faces own hunting game.

"The Magic Finger" is a brilliant fit for anyone who enjoys a mix of humor and morality. Roald Dahl's signature storytelling weaves a simple yet profound lesson on empathy and consequences. It's particularly compelling for animal lovers or those who appreciate a touch of magic in a very real world. The story turns the tables on the hunters in a way that's both whimsical and thought-provoking, all in a brief, easy-to-digest format.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

The Gregg family loves hunting, but their eight-year-old neighbor can't stand it. After countless pleas for them to stop are ignored, she has no other choice - she has to put her magic finger on them. Now the Greggs are a family of birds, and like it or not, they're going to find out how it feels to be on the other end of the gun.
