Boy

Roald Dahl's mischievous, nostalgic childhood tales.

"Boy" is more than just a memoir; it's a peek into the early life of one of the most imaginative authors of our time, Roald Dahl. If you've ever wondered where the magic of "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" or "Matilda" was born, this book is like finding the key to Dahl's idea factory. It's whimsical, sometimes poignant, and it offers a delightful read that can rekindle the childlike wonder in readers of all ages.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

I am only eight years old," I told myself. "No little boy of eight has ever murdered anyone. It's not possible!" In Boy, Roald Dahl recounts his days as a child growing up in England. From his years as a prankster at boarding school to his envious position as a chocolate tester for Cadbury's, Roald Dahl's boyhood was as full of excitement and the unexpected as are his world-famous, best-selling books. Packed with anecdotes — some funny, some painful, all interesting — this is a book that's sure to please. Roald Dahl, the brilliant and worldwide acclaimed author of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, James and the Giant Peach, Matilda, and many more classics for children, also wrote scores of short stories. These delightful tales have often been turned into hit films or television episodes, and even today, Roald Dahl's stories continue to make millions of readers rejoice with his brilliant prose.
