Roald Dahl

This year the world is celebrating Roald Dahl's 100th birthday (13th September). Celebrating? Yes, because without him we would not have Willy Wonka, BFG, Matilda, The Twits, The Fantastic Mr. Fox or so many more of our favourite characters.

But did you know that Roald Dahl's story is as interesting as any of his books?

He was a pilot in the war and he wrote the script for "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang" and one of the James Bond movies as well as lots of books for grown-ups.
