About the Author

Born in Wales in 1916, Roald Dahl was a poet, a screenwriter, and a World War II flying ace before becoming one of the most popular children's book authors of all time. Told with a wonderfully offbeat sense of humor, his stories star kids who explore strange, fantastical words—often while facing off against awful adults.
