Roald Dahl. Alfred A. Knopf Books for Young Readers, $16 (144pp) ISBN 978-0-679-88090-5

Lane Smith trades stinky cheese for fantastic fruit with his black-and-white illustrations for Roald Dahl's classic 1961 novel, James and the Giant Peach. The reissue is timed to coincide with the release of the Disney animated motion picture based on Smith's suitably subversive visual interpretation.
