The Roald Dahl Collection

Set 2

By Roald Dahl · 2022

Back to Catalogue
Synopsis

This collection gathers Roald Dahl's book-length stories for children: tales in which inventive or neglected boys and girls meet greedy adults, witches, giants, or peculiar animals and turn the situation by a trick, a potion, or stubborn nerve. Typical settings are English towns, country houses, factories, and slightly bent versions of ordinary family life. The tone mixes comic cruelty with reward for the young and punishment for the bullying grown-ups. The volumes are independent narratives, not a single serial. The set is a children's fiction collection, not a gathering of Dahl's adult short stories.
