About this product

Product Information

Roald Dahl's children's classic will be rediscovered with wonder and delight in this handsome gift edition with all-new black-and-white illustrations by Caldecott Honor Book artist Lane Smith (who also designed the characters for the Disney animated film).How James escapes from his miserable life with two nasty aunts and becomes a hero to his new insect family, including Miss Spider, the Old-Green-Grasshopper, the Centipede (with his 21 pairs of gorgeous boots), is "Dahl-icious" fantasy at its best."

Reviews
"This newly-illustrated edition of an avowed children's favorite has all the makings of a classic match-up: Milne had Shepard, Carroll had Tenniel, and now Dahl has Smith...author and illustrator were made for each other, and it's of little consequence that it took almost 35 years for them to meet" -- Kirkus .

  • Like brand new!

    I wanted this particular printing of James and the Giant Peach for the beautiful artwork. It's out or print, so I needed to jump through a couple hoops. Absolutely beautiful copy, like brand new! Thank you!

  • Excellent-far beyond my expectations

    I received the book today and it was perfect, like new. I appreciate the speedy manner in which it was sent and mostly, it was so very neatly double wrapped in white tissue paper, rewrapped with brown paper and enclosed in gray bubble wrap plastic bag. Such detail and care given. Most excellent and I cannot express my gratitude and appreciation enough. Thank you so very, very much.
