Book excerpt: Exuberant rhymes are an intrinsic part of the great appeal of Roald Dahl's books, and Songs and Verse is a joyful celebration of some of these magical moments. From the strange and scrumptious dishes enjoyed by James' centipede, to George and his marvellous medicine; from Augustus Gloop to the Giraffe and the Pelly and Me, there are many classics here, together with some previously unpublished treats. Packed into these pages are seven themed sections bursting with monsters, ghastly children, magical creatures, unpleasant adults and a few surprises. Quentin Blake, with whom Roald Dahl will always be linked, provides the opening illustrations for each section, together with the foreword to this book. Songs and Verse is illustrated by an international and award-winning line-up of some of the most exciting and talented artists working today. Many of the artists are new to Roald Dahl; some have illustrated his work before. The result is a visual feast, zinging with colour and wit, that no Roald Dahl fan will want to be without.

Download or read book De constructing Dahl written by Laura Viñas Valle and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2016-01-14 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first single-authored monograph on Roald Dahl since 1994. Remarkably, in spite of Dahl’s commercial success, and the divided opinions he generates, very little scholarly work on the author has been produced. In the light of sociocultural constructivist theory, De-constructing Dahl focuses on the critical context, texts and paratexts that make up the packaging of “Dahl.” It offers the first thorough overview of the criticism and the language employed to discuss Dahl since the 1970s, the difficulties that using such language entails, and how it still permeates current criticism. It delves into the relationship between Dahl’s children’s and adult fiction by drawing comparisons and contrasts and exploring the common traits and patterns that bring his whole work together. It also examines how Dahl constructed himself as a children’s writer; how his publishing house and allies contribute to mediating and sustaining the Dahl public persona; the ways that marketing strategies are responsible for the identity of his books; and how editorial decisions about the age range, and, therefore, how the classification of a manuscript as a book for children or for adults constructs particular ideas of what “children’s literature” is, and what is considered “appropriate” or “unsuitable” for children to read.
