Boy:Tales of Childhood By: Rolad Dahl


This book is about the the childhood or should I say boyhood of Roald Dahl. Some might say it is an autobiography but this is no ordinary autobiography as Dahl says himself that 'An autobiography is a book a person writes about his/her own life and its usually full of all sorts of boring details. This is not a autobiography' about his book. From this you can see that this book contains all sorts of fascinating stories from Rolad Dahl's extraordinary life. There are a variety of stories in Boy including funny ones like The Great Mouse Plot and Mr Coombes; disgusting ones like A visit to the doctor and A drive in the motor-car; sad ones like First day and happy ones like The magic island. I this book you can discover the adventures Rolad Dahl went through when he was young and 'boy' are they marvelous, if you read this book I'm sure you would wonder like me, is this all true? What a great life Dahl has had, sadly he's not with us today, but his life will be remembered from all his books, especially this one! This book is five star.
