 September is Roald Dahl month and we have been learning about this great author.

September is Roald Dahl’s birth month and each year his birthday is celebrated with a wonderful array of events centred around his birthday on 13 September.

Did you know…?

  • Roald Dahl wrote 20 books for children, with Charlie and the Chocolate Factory selling the most copies
  • His worldwide estimated sales are over 200 million!
  • The biggest selling single edition of any of Dahl’s books is the 2007 edition of The Twits
  • Roald Dahl shares an illustrator with David Walliams – the wonderful Quentin Blake
  • He has actually had Scots editions of his titles published, including Geordie’s Mingin’ Medicine and The Eejits!
