'I've eaten many strange and scrumptious dishes in my time . . .' So spoke the Grasshopper as, in James and the Giant Peach, he told us about the most incredible food he'd eaten - some of which you wouldn't even believe was real! Mice with rice, earwigs cooked in slime, fresh dragon's flesh and curried slugs and much much more.
Now YOU can create the most amazing food from the world of Roald Dahl in this incredible new recipe book, inspired by stories such as Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, The Giraffe the Pelly and Me, and Danny Champion of the World.
With easy step-by-step guides to making the most marvellous (and most revolting) recipes, and hints and tips for budding young chefs, this book will give you everything you need to cook amazing dishes.
Each recipe will be beautifully illustrated by a host of amazing artists.
Roald Dahl was born in Wales of Norwegian parents – the child of a second marriage. His father and elder sister died when Roald was just three. His mother was left to raise two stepchildren and her own four children. Roald was her only son.
He had an unhappy time at school - at Llandaff Cathedral School, at St Peter’s prep school in Weston-super-Mare and then at Repton in Derbyshire.
Dahl’s unhappy time at school was to influence his writing greatly. He once said that what distinguished him from most other children’s writers was “this business of remembering what it was like to be young”. Roald’s childhood and schooldays are the subject of his autobiography Boy.
Since Roald Dahl’s death, his books have more than maintained their popularity. Total sales of the UK editions are around 37 million, with more than 1 million copies sold every year! Sales have grown particularly strongly in America where Dahl books are now achieving the bestselling status that curiously proved elusive during the author’s lifetime.
