Roald Dahl’s beloved fantasy novel The BFG leaps off the page in this vintage 1988 Jonathan Cape hardback, faithfully illustrated by Quentin Blake. The tall, dream-catching Giant and brave Sophie whisk middle-grade readers through a bedtime adventure that still delights adults who remember the original read-aloud magic.

This copy preserves its bright dust jacket and every whimsical line drawing that earned Blake lifelong praise. A neat, very-good shelf presence shows only gentle page-yellowing—no writing, tears, or dog-ears—and the tight binding feels fresh from a smoke-free home.

What makes the offering extra-special is the illustrator’s own hand: Quentin Blake inscribed the book, adding unique collector value to an already cherished children’s classic. Whether you hunt antiquarian gems or need an engaging chapter book for ages 9-12, an inscribed BFG marries nostalgia with tangible investment.

Secure a piece of Dahl and Blake history today; giant-sized laughs and snozzcumber surprises await the next reader.
