Jakub Tamtudy je malý kluk, který neměl zatím v životě moc štěstí. Tety Brčková a Bečková, u kterých vyrůstá, jsou ohavné babice, které mu odpírají veškerou zábavu. Když však potká na zahradě podivného mužíčka s kouzlem v papírovém pytlíku, jeho život se změní. Na staré broskvoni, která nikdy neměla plody, se jako zázrakem urodí broskev nevídaných rozměrů. Když se Jakub jednou večer dostane tunelem až k pecce, zjistí, že kouzlo zasáhlo i některé hmyzí obyvatele zahrady, kteří teď v broskvi žijí.

Roald Dahl had an abiding love for and interest in nature. He kept notes about the habits of moles and foxes, the colour and song of birds and the different flowers, plants and berries that blossomed in the countryside around his home, Gipsy House, throughout the year. In the last year of his life he worked on a diary. But what was originally intended to be a few lines turned into a memorable account of the passing year.

"Ce livre n'est pas une autobiographie. L'idée ne me viendrait pas d'écrire pareil ouvrage. Par ailleurs, durant mes jeunes années à l'école, et juste après, ma vie a été émaillée d'incidents que je n'ai jamais oubliés. Certains furent drôles. Certains douloureux. Certains déplaisants. C'est pour cette raison, je suppose, que je me les rappelle tous de façon si aiguë."
