Danny, the Champion of the World Puffin Books
: My father, without the slightest doubt, was the most marvellous and exciting father any boy ever had. Danny feels very lucky. He adores his life with his father, living in a gypsy caravan, listening to his stories, tending their gas station, puttering around the workshop, and occasionally taking off to fly home-built gas balloons and kites. His father has raised him on his own, ever since Dannys mother died when he was four months old. Life is peaceful and wonderful ... until he turns 9 and discovers his fathers one vice. Soon Danny finds himself the mastermind behind the most incredible plot ever attempted against nasty Victor Hazell, a wealthy landowner with a bad attitude. Can they pull it off If so, Danny will truly be the champion of the world. Danny is right up to Roald Dahls impishly brilliant standards. An intense and beautiful father-son relationship is balanced with subtle escapades that will have even the most rigid law-abider rooting them on. Dahls inimitable way with words leaves the reader simultaneously satisfied and itching for more. Ages 9 to 13 Emilie Coulter
