Got this to read to my kids, 6,8,10 and they all loved it. Got the box set next and they have all continue to read them. Great way to introduce this author to kids.

Who doesn't love James & the Giant Peach!
This is a great story for all ages. I bought this book for two reasons. One: So, I can share this wonderful story with my great nephew's when they come visit. Two: Believe it or not its one of the Titles on the List of Banned Books. Which is utterly ridiculous and stupid.

Classic Book
Still a really great story that my elementary school kids enjoy. This was my 2nd favorite Dahl book after Charlie and the Chocolate Factory growing up.

Smell was quiet strong.
I must have received a different book than others the smell was so strong I had to air it out in the garage for a bit. I love this story so much and was excited to share it with my son but it was just to overwhelming of a sent for us. Other then that the book was in great condition and came quiet fast.

Nice light smell
Bought this book for my daughter's book collection. She is only 5 months old, but this was the best price, so I bought the scented edition. It came exactly as I anticipated, with a light, sweet peach smell. I saw other reviews complaining that the smell was not strong enough, but I assumed it would be on the cover only and light. I was correct in this assumption. Very happy with this book, would be fun for a young reader or an older reader revisiting an old favorite.

Bom e cheiroso
Comprei de presente para o meu namorado e ele gostou bastante. As páginas são de papel jornal, tem cheirinho de pêssego 🍑 e a capa é mole. Chegou bastante rápido e atendeu as expectativas. Já faz alguns meses que dei pra ele e ainda tem o cheirinho!
