Thank you for finding that report. Please actually read it. It supports what I say: Children read Dahl because other people buy the books for them to read. So he always appears in "most read" lists. Children do not enjoy the books, which is why when you ask children what books they enjoy he doesn't appear in those lists. The report you've linked contains both types of lists. For "most liked" you need pages 26-28, and appendix H tables 34 to 42b. Dahl doesn't appear once in the "most liked" tables. That's striking because he is so heavily read - he appears in all the "most often read" tables.
