Send us an e-mail so we can help! thekidventurespodcast@gmail.com [thekidventurespodcast@gmail.com] WHAT ARE YOU READING - ROALD DAHL Roald Dahl [https://www.roalddahl.com/] is one of our family’s favorite authors but his material can be controversial with some families. There are themes of magic in several books and we’ve heard in some circles that the treatment of children is too harsh (for example, how Matilda’s [https://amzn.to/3CDytgn] parents treat her.) Our son enjoys re-reading the short chapter books of George’s Marvelous Medicine [https://amzn.to/3CILC8X] and Fantastic Mr. Fox! [https://amzn.to/3Ta9tUC] Our daughter loved reading Esio Trot [https://amzn.to/3EsnWqM] and figuring out the little hidden riddle! No spoilers! If you’re new to Dahl, starting with Charlie and the Chocolate Factory [https://amzn.to/3CiktIw] is a great introduction to the imagination and fantastical ideas in Dahl’s writings! A book that we feel is overlooked is Danny The Champion of the World [https://amzn.to/3SLpsIX]. This book sits on my shelf as a Father’s Day gift from RaeAnna and the kids. It is a touching and humorous look at the relationship between Danny and his eccentric father. Dahl was a great writer and like many British authors of his time, included poetry within the novels. Charlie and the Chocolate Factory has some great poems for recitation. RaeAnna loves reciting “Mike Teavee” [https://www.poemhunter.com/poem/mike-teavee/] to our kids! The quote we read from Matilda [https://amzn.to/3CDytgn] can be found at the end of chapter 7 in the book [https://www.caldmore.attrust.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/sites/21/2021/01/Chapter-7.pdf]!
