Happy Roald Dahl Day!

Happy Roald Dahl day! I love Roald Dahl and all of his books including James and the Giant Peach, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, The Witches, The BFG, Matilda, Esio Trot, The Giraffe the Pelly, and Me, The Twits, Fantastic Mr. Fox, and the list goes on....I have grown up with and loved these books forever. I remember my mom reading James at night to us before bed and loving the BFG and his distaste for snozzcumbers but his refusal to eat children, and who doesn't know of the Oompa-Loompas? Thanks Roald for amazing books and memories!
"And above all, watch with glittering eyes the whole world around you because the greatest secrets are always hidden in the most unlikely places. Those who don't believe in magic will never find it."-Roald Dahl

" 'Mrs. D, Mrs. I, Mrs. FFI, Mrs. C, Mrs. U, Mrs. LTY. That spells difficulty.' 'How perfectly ridiculous!' snorted Ms. Trunchbull, 'Why are all these women married?' "-from Matilda
