    • Issu de la 4ème de couverture : "Ce livre n'est pas un conte de fées mais une histoire de vraies sorcières. Vous n'y trouverez ni stupides chapeaux noirs, ni manches à balai : la vérité est beaucoup plus épouvantable. Les vraies sorcières sont habillées de façon ordinaire, vivent dans des maisons ordinaires. En fait, elles ressemblent à n'importe qui. Si on ajoute à cela qu'une sorcière passe son temps à dresser les plans les plus démoniaques pour attirer les enfants dans ses filets, vous comprendrez pourquoi ce livre vous est indispensable !"

      In Boy, Roald Dahl recounts his days as a child growing up in England.

Packed with anecdotes -- some funny, some painful, all interesting -- this is a book that's sure to please.
