The offset-position CSS property defines the initial position of the offset-path.

Syntax

/* Keyword values */ offset-position: auto; offset-position: top; offset-position: bottom; offset-position: left; offset-position: right; offset-position: center;  /* <percentage> values */ offset-position: 25% 75%;  /* <length> values */ offset-position: 0 0; offset-position: 1cm 2cm; offset-position: 10ch 8em;  /* Edge offsets values */ offset-position: bottom 10px right 20px; offset-position: right 3em bottom 10px; offset-position: bottom 10px right; offset-position: top right 10px;  /* Global values */ offset-position: inherit; offset-position: initial; offset-position: revert; offset-position: unset; 

Values

auto

The initial position is the position of the box specified by the position property.

<position>

A <position>. A position defines an x/y coordinate, to place an item relative to the edges of an element's box. It can be defined using one to four values. If two non-keyword values are used, the first value represents the horizontal position and the second represents the vertical position. If only one value is specified, the second value is assumed to be center. If three or four values are used, the length-percentage values are offsets for the preceding keyword value(s). For more explanation of these value types, see background-position.

"Olivia, my eldest daughter, caught measles when she was seven years old. As the illness took its usual course I can remember reading to her often in bed and not feeling particularly alarmed about it. Then one morning, when she was well on the road to recovery, I was sitting on her bed showing her how to fashion little animals out of coloured pipe-cleaners, and when it came to her turn to make one herself, I noticed that her fingers and her mind were not working together and she couldn’t do anything. 'Are you feeling all right?' I asked her. 'I feel all sleepy,' she said. In an hour, she was unconscious. In twelve hours she was dead. The measles had turned into a terrible thing called measles encephalitis and there was nothing the doctors could do to save her. That was...in 1962, but even now, if a child with measles happens to develop the same deadly reaction from measles as Olivia did, there would still be nothing the doctors could do to help her. On the other hand, there is today something that parents can do to make sure that this sort of tragedy does not happen to a child of theirs. They can insist that their child is immunised against measles. ...I dedicated two of my books to Olivia, the first was ‘James and the Giant Peach’. That was when she was still alive. The second was ‘The BFG’, dedicated to her memory after she had died from measles. You will see her name at the beginning of each of these books. And I know how happy she would be if only she could know that her death had helped to save a good deal of illness and death among other children."

I just checked google books for BFG, and the dedication is there.
