AFTER SCHOOL READING

ROALD DAHL













Roald Dahl was a British  writer, poet, fighter pilot and screenwriter. 
He was born in 1916, Wales and died in 1990 at the age of seventy- four.

His books, which are read by children the world over, are:

  • James and the Giant Peach
  • Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (maybe you`ve seen a movie? Click to watch the trailer of this movie).
  • The Magic Finger
  • The Witches
  • Matilda
  • The Twits 
Students from form 6 are going to read stories of the book 
THE TWITS (a twit means a stupid person).

The Twits is a extremely nasty couple who live in a brick house without windows. They live together  with a monkey family called the Muggle- Wumps who they treat badly. Mr and Mrs Twit play nasty tricks on each other mostly every day ......

Listen to part 1.

"If a person has ugly thoughts, it begins to show on the face. And when that person has ugly thoughts every day, every week, every year, the face gets uglier and uglier unitl it gets so ugly you can hardly bear to look at it. A person who has good thoughts cannot ever be ugly." (R. Dahl "The Twits")

WHAT DO YOU THINK ?
