Publisher Description
This new rebrand of MORE ABOUT BOY is a favourite book containing a wealth of new photos, facts and writings about Roald Dahl and his childhood, together with the original text and illustrations from his much-loved memoir. With lots of little-known details, this is a must-have for all Dahl fans!
Look out for new Roald Dahl apps in the App store and Google Play- including the disgusting TWIT OR MISS! and HOUSE OF TWITS inspired by the revolting Twits.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Containing the entire text and artwork from Dahl's 1984 autobiography Boy, this reworked and expanded version also incorporates previously unpublished materials from the Roald Dahl Museum and Story Centre in England, as well as excerpts that have appeared in earlier books. From harrowing accounts of a doctor's visit to have his adenoids removed ("He spoke gently, and I was seduced by his voice. Like an ass, I opened my mouth") to school life (including several run-ins with a cane), Dahl's revealing writing, open and full of wicked humor, is certain to endear the beloved writer known to his family as "Boy" to a new generation. Ages 10 up.

A boy who writs books and when a man can't writ books any more.
