Andy and Terry have a new book to write, but there's a problem. A BIG problem. Well, quite a few big problems actually.... On a hill not too far away there is a tree. And in that tree there is a tree house. And in that tree house there is a bowling alley, a see-through swimming pool, a tank full of sharks, a giant rope swing, a library full of comics, a secret underground laboratory, a vegetable vaporiser and a free marshmallow-dispensing machine.

I Wish He'd Recorded More.
I love being able to listen to the words being read by the person who wrote them and knew how they were meant to be said- I know there are celebrity readings of Roald Dahl's books and I'll definitely get "The Twits" read by Richard Ayoade as soon as I get a new bunch of credits.
I only wish I could listen to him read more of his stories, I love it so much that I'll definitely listen to it again and again- it calms me down and lets me escape to the childhood stories which kept me busy and gave my mind somewhere else to be during any situation where I had access to a book.
I'll be looking into finding if there are any other recordings of readings done by Roald Dahl, this one is definitely a very special Audible purchase that I would encourage any fan of fiction or classics to try.

fun
As with all of Dahl's books, these stories are great.
Well read, and great to hear Dahl himself!
However, we were disappointed that the stories were condensed... they are not nearly as good as 'the read thing'
