Good read in the "Who Was" series for kids 9-11 who enjoy books like "Charlie and The Chocolate Factory." Dahl had an adventurous life, made a comment or 2 he rightfully had to apologize for, and lost family members to illness/accidents. This is explained in kid-friendly ways, but too complicated for kids under 9. 4.5 stars. #kidlit #roalddahl

I truly adore these books. I wish they were around when I was a kid! Loaded with facts, side notes to further explain topics and even a timeline at the end. You really can't ask for much more!
