3. The Author: Roald Dahl Mini Biography: Date of birth: 13.09.1916 in Wales, of Norwegian parents Date of death: 23.11.1990 Roald Dahl was a famous short story writer who became one of the most successful and beloved children's writers of all time. His books are mostly fantasy, and full of imagination. They are always a little cruel, but never without humour - a thrilling mixture of the grotesque and comic. A frequent motif is, that people are not, what they appear to be.

4. Biblioghraphy He wrote two novels, two autobiographies, nineteen children's books, and many short story collections, the most notable being Kiss Kiss, Switch Bitch, The Witches, Beware of the Dog, Matilda, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Someone Like You, Sweet Mystery Of Life, Ghost Stories. [1988 interview with Todd McCormack] -When you're writing it is no good having people who are ordinary, because they are not going to interest your readers at all. -Every writer in the world has to use the characters that have something interesting about them and this is even more true in children's books. -I find that the only way to make my characters really interesting to children is to exaggerate all their good or bad qualities, and so if a person is nasty or bad or cruel, you make them very nasty, very bad, very cruel. If they are ugly, you make them extremely ugly. That, I think, is fun and makes an impact.
