D Is for Dahl: A gloriumptious A-Z guide to the world of Roald Dahl2 reviews
Roald Dahl

Puffin, 2007

Fun new info on a great author
This is a great review of Dahl's life and career in a really fun format that will make it fun for kids. By making it an "alphabet book" his life and times are peppered with bits from his books, funny words he invented, and lots of great illustration from Blake. I've been reading it just a bit at a time in order to savor it, because it's worth it. This is a must have for Dahl fans of any age.
