Roald Dahl: Little People, BIG DREAMS

€13,95

Discover the life of Roald Dahl, the groundbreaking author whose work is beloved by children all over the world.
Little Roald grew up in the city of Cardiff in Wales. He loved to spend time reading with his family and visiting the local sweetshop for yummy chocolatey treats. But he found school difficult. No one believed in Roald’s potential. When Roald finished school, he was ready to make his life an adventure! He travelled the world and saw some amazing sights. When World War II started, he was ready to serve his country and joined the air force. During his service, his plane crashed over a desert, leaving him blind for a period of time.
Roald wrote about his experience of the crash, and enjoyed doing it so much that from then on, he knew he wanted to be an author. Roald began crafting books for children, working away in the shed at the bottom of his garden. From Charlie and the Chocolate Factory to James and the Giant Peach, his wonderful stories have captivated generations of readers. The magical worlds he created have been brought to the stage and screen, with hit musicals, like Matilda, and films, like The Witches. The story also boldly addresses the antisemitic remarks that Roald Dahl made during his lifetime, highlighting the power and impact that our words can have: both to delight or cause lasting harm. This thoughtful book features quirky illustrations and extra facts at the back, including a biographical timeline with historical photos and a detailed profile of Roald’s life. His story shows that extraordinary talent lies within each and every one of us. Little People, BIG DREAMS is a bestselling biography series for kids that explores the lives of outstanding people, from designers and artists to scientists and activists.
