My siblings and I used to sit around listen to them, like it was 1920s and all the family gathering around radio for shows!Breigehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15273124468088477481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8094439846886844538.post-54094721663418987582014-09-22T23:12:36.468+01:002014-09-22T23:12:36.468+01:00I really need to reread George's Marvellous Me...I really need to reread George's Marvellous Medicine, I have read it but I don't think I ever owned it. I picked up a copy of James and Giant Peach from second hand story the other day and I'll give it to my new cousin, so she can start building up her library. Never too early to do so!

And to be fair, that new cover for Charlie and the Chocolate Factory was awful! Certainly got people talking about it though.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14120426570864703850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8094439846886844538.post-1502422219293963892014-09-13T16:54:44.353+01:002014-09-13T16:54:44.353+01:00Great post!

I spotted recently that Audible are bringing out some of his books read by the likes of Chris O Dowd, Kate Winslet etc. I think I'll be getting several of them- before I could read I used to listen to the Giraffe The Pelly and Me on tape so I think it'll be really comforting to do that again, should help with the insomnia too!Nurse Fancy Pantshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02988437672649266129noreply@blogger.com
