Roald Dahl is a great author. He did not want me to stop reading it. I read this book as a child and puchased it to read to my 4 year old son. He loved the book. I recommend purchasing "The BFG", by the same author, which my son liked even more.
THE TWITS is a funny and enjoyable little yarn which stinks of some gross humor and yet warms the readers with stories of friendship and helping each other as well as a couple of moral lessons in the tradition of Aesop. On a side note, the "crude" humor in this little book is fairly tame by today's standards.
I always recommend this to people who have young children (particularly boys) with quirky senses of humor. This is a short book, but typical of a Roald Dahl book, there is enough goofy humor here to gladden any heart. My kids absolutely wore out their paperback copy of The Twits, reading it so often that I ended up buying a hardcover to save money. I have read it three times myself, and ALWAYS laugh out loud while reading it. A wonderful read-aloud book that is timeless.
and Mrs. Twit is the person that always wins in the jokes. Twit told her that she would be getting smaller and smaller until there was nothing left of her. Twit is always putting super sticky glue on the trees to catch birds to put them in their pies. He has hair everywhere except his forehead. This book is about a married couple that nobody likes.
The monkeys and birds decided to get their revenge on Mr. Since she uses a cane, Mr. Their hobbies are to play mean and nasty jokes on each other and catch birds to put them in their pies. They put everything on the ceiling then when they came in they started to panic and saying "We are up-side down." "HELP."I liked this book because it was hilarious. Mr. Did anyone ever play a joke on you. I think you would really like this book if you are a person that likes to joke around. Twit are the smelliest, nastiest, and ugliest people in the world.
and Mrs. Mr. Twit's beers so he could get scared. Some problems are that they think everything is a joke and they are rude to everybody in their town. Twit wasn't ugly at first but then she got uglier and uglier as the years went by. Mr. One way this book was funny is that they play jokes on each other.
and Mrs. All they do is play jokes on each other. They make it look as if Mr. Since they make the monkeys do everything up side down the monkeys got mad. Twit. Mrs. She is always negative toward people and, the expression on her face showed it and that's why she became ugly. Therefore I recommend this book to people that love comedy.
Then he told her she was getting the shrinks. Mr. One of my favorite parts was when the monkeys and birds got their revenge, after they got tired of getting pushed around by the Twits. Twit started putting little pieces of wood (no thicker than a penny) to make her cane taller. Twit, from the book The Twits by Roald Dahl, had a lot of experience with that. Twit were up-side down.
Her reaction was, "Is there a cure." Then Mr. While I was reading the book it started getting more and more interesting and funny. Well, I'm pretty sure Mr. There are different kinds of jokes: funny, nasty, and even really mean ones.
and Mrs. Twit has one fake eye that she always puts in Mr. Twit is the hairiest faced man. Mrs.
If you do like comedy I think this is the best book to read.
The plot goes no where fast and the characters are indeed twits like the title implies. Good thing it was so short or there would be no way I would have finished it ever. I have read most of Roald Dahl's books and this has got to be the worst of them. I hate this book don't go near it with a 39 and 1/2 foot pole.
