The Twits
by Roald Dahl
‘The Twits’ has been one of my favourite stories since I was a child. It tells the tale of a hideously beastly and exceedingly mischievous husband and wife duo who try to one-up each other with nasty (although very funny!) tricks. This books also contains one of my favourite quotes: ‘…if you have good thoughts they will shine out of your face like sunbeams and you will always look lovely.’
