From the bestselling author of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and The BFG!

]The Ladderless Window-Cleaning Company certainly doesn't. They don’t need a pail, either, because they have a pelican with a bucket-sized beak. With a monkey to do the washing and Billy as their manager, this business is destined for success. Now they have their big break—a chance to clean all 677 windows of the Hampshire House, owned by the richest man in all of England! That’s exciting enough, but along the way there are surprises and adventures beyond their wildest window-washing dreams.

Another lovely Roald Dahl book!

“All you do is look
At a page in this book
Because that's where we always will be
No book ever ends
When it's full of your friends
The Giraffe the Pelly and me.”

A very sweet little short story; cute but not his best. I loved the references to Willa Wonka.
