MEDIA REVIEWS
"Roald Dahl has the knack of knowing what makes children laugh - and his versions of some of the most popular fairy stories written in poetry style are side-splitting" - Sally Bailey Essex Chronicle Series "A sumptuous collection" The Good Book Guide
Roald Dahl
Dahl gifted readers some of literature's most abiding and wonderful characters,from the lovable dream-whispering,word-mangling giant,the BFG,to magical Matilda,chocolate-maker extraordinaire Willy Wonka and many more. Endlessly inventive and laugh-out- loud funny,Dahl's stories reinvent the world for every new generation. They are rightly ranked among the greatest classics of children's fiction,stories that celebrate kindness,bravery and hope. Oh and whizzpopping.
