You too can baffle, bewilder and bamboozle your friends and family! Astound them with feats of calculation, scientific miracles, incredible creativity and fiendishly clever tricks, all with simple, step- by- step instructions. Inspired by Roald Dahl's terrific tale Matilda, this is the perfect book for budding brain boxes everywhere! .
Roald Dahl ( 13 September 1916 � 23 November 1990) was a British novelist, short story writer, and screenwriter.
Born in Llandaff, Wales, to Norwegian parents, Dahl served in the Royal Air Force during the Second World War, in which he became a flying ace and intelligence agent. He rose to prominence in the 1940s with works for both children and adults, and became one of the world's bestselling authors. His short stories are known for their unexpected endings, and his children's books for their unsentimental, often very dark humour.
Some of his more well-known works include James and the Giant Peach, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Fantastic Mr Fox, Matilda, The Witches, and The BFG.
