This is a true classic of children's literature and one of Roald Dahl's most heartfelt stories. Unlike his more "magical" books, this one is grounded in the real-world bond between a father and son.
The story follows young Danny, who lives with his father in a cozy Gypsy caravan behind their filling station. Danny discovers his father's secret passion for poaching pheasants from the estate of the mean and wealthy Mr. Victor Hazell. Together, they hatch an ingenious plot to capture all the pheasants in the woods right before Mr. Hazell's big shooting party.
