THE MINPINS by Roald Dahl
PAPERBACK
Author: Roald Dahl
Illustrator: Patrick Benson
Slip beyond the garden gate and into a forest where wonders - and dangers - lurk high above the ground… THE MINPINS is a thrilling, magical adventure from Roald Dahl, brought vividly to life with rich, atmospheric illustrations by Patrick Benson.
Billy has been warned never to enter the dark forest beyond his home. Naturally, curiosity wins - and when he steps inside, he discovers an extraordinary hidden world. Deep within the hollow trees live the Minpins: tiny, secretive people no bigger than matchsticks, whose lives unfold far above the forest floor.
But this is no peaceful woodland. The Minpins are hunted by the terrifying Gruncher, a galloping monster who prowls the forest, snatching them away in terrifying numbers. When Billy realises the danger his new friends are in, he must summon all his courage and cleverness to help stop the beast — even if it means risking everything himself.
Darkly exciting yet full of warmth and wonder, The Minpins is a story of bravery, imagination, and standing up for those smaller than yourself. Patrick Benson’s dramatic artwork adds depth and tension to Dahl’s final children’s book, making this edition especially captivating for confident young readers.
A spellbinding tale that proves even the smallest heroes can take on the greatest monsters.
