Summary: Have you ever wanted to know what actually happened to James Trotter's parents when they encountered an angry escaped rhino? Or how to make the Twits' infamous bird pie? Well now you can find out. This book is a brilliant extension to Dahl's stories, and gives insights into the characters and events from Roald Dahl's writing. The stories behind the stories are brought to life. Inside, Quentin Blake's illustrations are combined with previously unpublished reproductions of imagined letters, artefacts and posters, and editing notes from Dahl himself, to bring Roald Dahl's characters alive.
