Summary:  Presents humorous anecdotes from the author's childhood which includes summer vacations in Norway and adventures at an English boarding school. British writer Roald Dahl (1916-1990) wrote novels, short stories and film scripts, but he was best known for his children’s books. He wrote 19 children’s books, the most popular of which were James and the Giant Peach (1961) and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (1964), which was made into the hit movie Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory in 1971. Fantastic Mr. Fox (1970) and The BFG (1982) are more recent children’s books. He also wrote a number of film scripts, including You Only Live Twice (1967) and Chitty Chitty Bang Bang (1968), both adapted from Ian Fleming novels. A collection of short stories, Someone Like You (1953) became a best-seller and was followed by Kiss, Kiss (1960), which firmly established Dahl as a serious writer of fiction. Switch Bitch (1974), another work of adult fiction, continued Dahl’s tradition of morbid, eerie tales for adults. Dahl wrote two autobiographies, Boy - Tales of Childhood (1984) and Going Solo (1986). He was married for 30 years to American actress Patricia Neal. Roald Dahl died of leukemia on November 23, 1990, at his home in Great Missenden, Buckinghamshire, at the age of 74. Genre:  Children's books on CD. Autobiographies, Juvenile.
