A man that had a wonderful imagination. Belongs in the hearts of children of all ages, everywhere.

*edit* oops. The link to the audio file didn't work. You'll have to link directly to the page: http://www.poetryarchive.org/poetryarchive/singlePoet.do?poetId=7177#

		Roald Dahl (1916-1990) is one of the most successful children's writers in the world: around thirty million of his books have been sold in the U.K. alone. Children love his poems and stories because he writes from their point of view - in his books adults are often the villains or are just plain stupid!</blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/26520A96-6520-407F-8644-CDE4EB5BA1DF/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content9.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
