Delightful, delightful and more delightful. The beginnings of the genius that gave us the BFG, Matilda, Willy Wonka and so many other wonderful characters and stories. The added plus of Quentin Blake's quirky, funny, and brilliant illustrations. Roald tells his story from the meeting of his parents up till his early years working for Shell. Largely brought up by his mother he and his siblings had a secure and it would appear uneventful childhood, with odd events happening that you can see form the background to his marvellous stories. If you love Dahl's books, you will love this, written in the same imaginative and enchanting manner.
