As it's the advent of the well-known children's author Roald Dahl's birthday today, what better day to celebrate some of his wonderful works. So, without further ado, here are a small selection of my favourites, featuring the lively illustrations of Quentin Blake.
Charlie & the Chocolate Factory

Matilda

Revolting Rhymes

James & the Giant Peach

The Witches

The BFG (The Big Friendly Giant)

George's Marvellous Medicine

If you want to mark the occassion yourself, why not try something from the downloadable Roald Dahl Day Party Pack? It's sure to be entertaining!
There's also a rather wonderful and interactive official website (complete with a quiz, e-postcards you can send and a flying peach game for under 13s) here.
