The Magic Finger is a 1966 children's story by British author Roald Dahl. A 1980's version released by WM Collins features Anne Clements as narrator. The 2013 edition of the audiobook featured narration by Kate Winslet and was released on digital audio by Penguin Audio.

Animation

The story was adapted into an original video animation (OVA) by Abbey Broadcast Communications in 1990, which was released straight-to-video through Abbey Home Entertainment. It was a faithful adaption of the original story, which was told through Clements' audiobook recordings against animations in the style of Quentin Blake's illustrations. Re-releases from 1997 onwards redubbed Clements' narration with that of actress Caroline Quentin. For its 2005 DVD release, the original narration was reinstated.
