This brand-new biography gives readers the thoroughly fantastic story behind the world's # 1 storyteller! How did a young boy from a small town in Wales grow up to become one of the world's greatest storytellers—the creator of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, James and the Giant Peach, and Matilda? From his days at boarding school to his love of chocolate and endless storytelling, Roald Dahl's life, just like his books, was nothing short of extraordinary. Now the award-winning writer Michael Rosen explores Roald Dahl's own story to discover what made his writing so fantastic.
