Roald Dahl by Jason Hook
Born in Wales in 1916 to Norwegian parents, Roald Dahl went on to become one of the world's most famous authors. This book charts his life - from descriptions of his happy childhood and school life, to his time spent as an RAF pilot during World War II. Always an inquisitive and imaginative person, Roald soon discovered his gift for writing children's books. His many stories, including bestsellers such as "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory", "The Twits" and "Matilda", have sold all around the world, to great acclaim. However, as well as experiencing much happiness, Roald also suffered great misfortune in his family life. This is a fantastic read on an intriguing character, complete with quotation panels, date chart, glossary and index.-
