About this book
The Magic Finger is a children's book by Roald Dahl, first published in 1966. It is narrated by an eight-year-old girl who has a strange power: when she loses her temper, her finger sends out a force that causes something odd to happen to whoever has upset her.
Her neighbours, the Gregg family, go hunting, which she hates. After they come home with a dead deer, she points her finger at them. The next morning the Greggs find that they have shrunk to the size of birds and sprouted wings, and now it is the ducks who are in charge.
