Roald Dahl was born on Septemin Cardiff, Wales. He was the third of four children and the only son of Harald and Sofie Dahl. In January 1920, Roald's sister Astri died of appendicitis at the age of seven. Two months later, Harald died of pneumonia. Many around him believed that he died of a broken heart. After finishing high school in 1934, Roald went to work for the Shell Oil Company. He underwent training in England for three years, after which he was sent to East Africa (Wonderful 189). He was in his mid twenties and in the mood for an adventure. He went to Kenya, Dar-es-Salaam, where h was to be based, the capital of Tanganyika (now Tanzania) and Zanzibar along the way. He would later recount his adventures at Shell and his subsequent experiences as an RAF pilot in his 1986 book, Going Solo.įor me personally, Roald Dahl has always been one of my favourite writers. I was reading his books when I was 10/11 years and I enjoyed them very much.
Dahl can interest you very easily and pull you into a story, that you can’t stop reading. At this moment I haven’t read any books of Roald Dahl for a few years, until I saw this English book. Number of pages: of a series of matching novels yes O no Genre: Edition published by: Heinemann / New windmills As soon as I started reading I recognised his typical way of writing immediately, and I enjoyed it a lot.Ĥ.
