Me reading The Twits by Roald Dahl. This is part 1. There are 2 parts to it.
Everybody knows him.... Roald Dahl! Its sad how he died because he made loads of great books like,James and the Giant Peach,The BFG (Big Friendly Giant),The Magic Finger,Charlie and the Chocolate Factory,Fantasic Mr Fox,The Twits and more.I hope he lies in peace.
The stars of Fantastic Mr. Fox explain what makes children's author Roald Dahl so special at the World Premiere of Wes Anderson's new film adapation. Follow us on twitter at twitter.com
Roald Dahl was probably best known for inventing the wild world of Willy Wonka, but he wrote dozens of books, many of which were as funny and charming and full of invention as anything involving Oompah Loompahs. The Twits are probably the most revolting of Dahl's literary creations. Here are the first few chapters from Dahl's book The Twits, with illustrations by Quentin Blake. Go to Amazon.com to get your own copy ofThe Twits. It's cheaper than Internet access, and twice as disgusting!
A cool clip of stick figure people moving and shrinking! They also say "Bye!" (The name 'I Have The Shrinks!' comes from the Roald Dahl book called "The Twits.")

I thought that I would review some childrens books first, so I decided that Roald Dahl would be fun to do. Enjoy. Visit my website: booksreviewed.website.orange.co.uk Email through the contact form on the archive page or through youtube.

School presentation about the book "The Twits" by Roald Dahl.
Great Missenden at the head of the Misbourne valley is an attractive small town, with a long curving High Street of half timbered and Georgian shops, a graciously proportioned Baptist Church and a number of traditional pubs. Church Street is full of interesting old houses and leads, via a bridge over the by - pass, to the mainly 14th century Parish Church of St. Peter and St. Paul. Missenden Abbey, founded in 1133 as an Augustinian monastery, is now a residential college offering adult education courses. Great Missenden has been host to a variety of famous people over the centuries, including Robert Louis Stevenson (author of Treasure Island). The village is now best known as home to the late Roald Dahl, the internationally famous children's author.

His most popular books include The Twits, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, James and the Giant Peach, Matilda, The Witches and The BFG. Official website: www.roalddahl.com
a stop motion we made in college, we were put into group of 5 and told to animate a scene from a roald dahl book, we picked the twits... this is (rather loosely based on) the scene where mr twit coats a tree in glue, then brings the captured birds back to his missus so she put them in a pie Music is The Lunatics Have Taken Over the Asylum by Fun Boy Three we have apparently introduced another character doing the glue painting, we have deduced that he is,in fact the twits' estranged rastafarian son (we all had to build a character for this, though only 2 were intended for use, how stupid is that? oh well, they all have at least a cameo in the animation, see i you can find them all) but i digress, i'm ranting, so i'll shut up now
At the Hampstead Public Library in Hampstead, NH children talk about their favorite books, including We are making breakfast for Mother (by Shirley Neitzel), Yes we can! (by Sam McBratney), The Twits (by Roald Dahl), The great fuzz frenzy (by Janet Stevens and Susan Stevens Crummel), and Six hogs on a scooter (by Eileen Spinelli).
This was my Final Major Project from ND Multimedia, completed July 2007. Created in Flash, I adapted half the original Roald Dahl book (Page-wise, at least) to just under two minutes; complete with my own soundtrack and character designs. There were designs for the Mugglewump Monkeys and the Roly Poly Bird that I didn't really use, as I planned to adapt the whole book -- maybe a project that will get done, since I could do so much better than this, it was a learning exercise in and of itself, really. Nonetheless, I think creating something like this before I've even started a real animation course was something pretty special, even though the only bit in this I still stand by is Mr. Twit ascending the ladder up the tree. --------------- Also, if you don't get this, or understand it; take some time out to maybe read the original book. Or something. Please, don't leave me comments with "wtf" or whatever. Cheers.

Yes, this video is actually based on a real life event that we observed when we once sat in on a discussion group meeting. It was awkward, to say the least. Charly's final retort we just added for a bit of embellishment.
