The Bookseller

... a story by Roald Dahl featured on the BBC

March 2 is National Read Across America Day, but since the date falls on a Sunday this year, it is officially observed on Monday! This celebration had me pondering my favorite childhood book, James and the Giant Peach by Roald Dahl. Dahl also wrote adult fiction, so today I’m excited to present an episode from a 2016 BBS production called Roald Dahl: Served with a Twist, which features several of his stories. This one is called “The Bookseller” and it was published in January of 1987. Enjoy!
