Ebook: The Roald Dahl Treasury

The Treasury contains selections from fiction and non-fiction, prose
and poetry taken from Roald Dahl’s best-loved children’s books. We
have also included some letters and poems which have never before
been published. Quentin Blake has produced a very large number of
new illustrations especially for this book and in addition we have
invited a few other artists to take part, each working in their own and
highly varied style. The artists are: Patrick Benson, Raymond Briggs,
Babette Cole, Lane Smith, Posy Simmonds, Fritz Wegner and
Christopher Wormell.

May The Roald Dahl Treasury delight everyone already familiar with
Roald’s writings and may it excite equally those for whom some of the
books included are new. We all know that Roald’s gifts made him a
storyteller whose work delighted a colossal number of readers but even
beyond its appeal, his writing has extraordinary qualities and through
these qualities it enriches us. This is called literature.
