" The prime function of the children's book writer is to write a book that is so absorbing, exciting, funny, fast and beautiful that the child will fall in love with it. And that first love affair between the young child and the young book will lead hopefully to other loves for other books and when that happens the battle is probably won. The child will have found a crock of gold. He will also have gained something that will help to carry him most marvelously through the tangles of his later years." -Roald Dahl
“Good children's literature appeals
not only to the child in the adult, but to the adult in the child.” - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
"If my books can help children become readers then I feel I have
accomplished something important."
-Roald Dahl
"A Message to Children Who Have Read This Book - When you grow up
and have children of your own, do please remember something important:
a stodgy parent is no fun at all. What a child wants and deserves is a parent
who is SPARKY."
-Roald Dahl
