We’re having so much fun working our way through Roald Dahl’s books we actually have 2 on the go at the moment. We love September as the 13th September is Roald Dahl Day and we made our brilliant Mr Twit gingerbeard biscuit. The festivities continue throughout September culminating in Dahlicious Dress Up Day for Roald Dahl’s Marvellous Children’s Charity with a very special LIVE webcast all about Roald Dahl, streamed into schools across the world. If you know any teachers then tell them to register their school for free at www.puffinvirtuallylive.co.uk
A brilliant new hardback edition of Roald Dahl’s The Twits with a hairy beard cover was published this month. You can touch-and-feel Mr Twit’s straggly old beard and even stick bits of food in it to make it even more disgusting if you like.
The Twits are possibly the nastiest and most disgusting of all Roald Dahl’s characters.
They smell because they never wash, they fight because they play tricks on each other, AND they hate children. But worst of all, they keep monkeys in their back garden. In cages. It’s time for the monkeys to get their revenge on these two most revolting creatures . . .
