Roald Dahl

Roald Dahl was a British writer known for his children's books, including classics like 'Charlie and the Chocolate Factory' and 'Matilda'.

"I have a passion for teaching kids to become readers, to become comfortable with a book, not daunted. Books shouldn't be daunting, they should be funny, exciting and wonderful; and learning to be a reader gives a terrific advantage."

Roald Dahl

"Bunkum and tummyrot! You'll never get anywhere if you go about what-iffing like that. Would Columbus have discovered America if he'd said 'What if I sink on the way over? What if I meet pirates? What if I never come back?' He wouldn't even have started."

Roald Dahl

"I'd rather be fried alive and eaten by Mexicans."
