Oddly enough, that seems to be just about the one kid's novel of his we haven't read, and my wife found it in the library yesterday. So it's next on our list after we finish the Judy Blume book we're reading now (the first one of hers we've read). She seems bored with that one, although it has its moments. She's just ravenous for a good adventure/funny/fantasy story she can lose herself in, and when she saw Witches and Dahl's name she jumped up and down with glee.
I'll definitely have to check out Le Petit Nicolas too, maybe they have it in the main library here.

I have to say that from the age of 10 when I first read a Roald Dahl book I was hooked, and having read pretty much everything by him, I have never found any other children's author as great. Sorry to disappoint.
