The Twits by Roald Dahl - review

'I would recommend The Twits if you like reading books that are funny and if you like stories about people getting shrunk down into their pants if they are very naughty'

The Twits is about Mr Twit and Mrs Twit, their monkeys and the birds. Mr Twit is so weird, it kept making me think "why would Mr Twit do that?" Because he is naughty of course!

The things that were funny about The Twits were the kids getting glued onto a tree, and their pants were still stuck onto a tree, and they were just running out with their little bottoms smiling at the sun.

I would recommend The Twits if you like reading books that are funny and if you like stories about people getting shrunk down into their pants if they are very naughty and play tricks on each other. I would normally think that The Twits are funny either way, even if I was an old man or an old lady or a baby, I would still like the Twits, no matter what.

I loved the Twits. About 20 kilometres an hour in the car, that's how much.
