Win a bundle of Roald Dahl goodies *NOW CLOSED*

Charlie & the Chocolate factory as I read it so often to my son.

Matilda Wormwood and her indomitable spirit .

Definitely Matilda. Such a clever but caring child.

Willy Wonka

The Oompa - Loompas from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory are my favourites, they are hard working and great at singing the rhymes about naughty children

I have to agree with Chewbacca - it has to be Mr. Twit - but ably assisted in his scheming ways by his Mrs! My DS loved this book so much and I intend to buy it (and all the other RD stories) for his beauiful baby girl just as soon as she's old enough to enjoy them - is 10 months too soon?

The BFG. Our children sat enthralled when my husband read it to them and Grandad now reads to the grandchildren. Magical moments.

Love Roald Dahl books- there’s enduring appeal that’s been enjoyed by our children and since then our older grandchildren. Looking forward now to the younger grandchildren getting to know them! Favourite character is the wonderful Matilda just a delight to see her triumph over adversity- just like we all wish we could!

Charlie And The Chocolate Factory I was given a copy as a young girl by a visiting relative, living in York close to Terry's and Rowntree's chocolate Factories .we often had the lovely smell of chocolate in the air .I must confess having relatives working in both factories we had an endless supply of chocolates.

The BFG for me. Both of my grandads died before I was born, my paternal grandfather James died for his country in the First World War and although I never knew him I’ve always felt close to him thanks to my grandmother who talked about him to me from when I was old enough to understand how kind and brave he was. The BFG is just the kind of Grandad I would have wanted and I’m sure Grandad James would have been just like him! Love reading it to my grandchildren even though it brings tears to my eyes.

Mr Twit from The Twits, can’t forget enjoying his wonderful beard with my children.

Matilda for her love of reading

I love Mr (and Mrs) Twit. When I was a primary school teacher I used to read this book at storytime. I always enjoyed the children's reaction to the gruesome descriptions of these characters.
This was a great gateway book into reading for reluctant readers!

BFG.. such a lovely grand dad..everyone would love one!

Charlie from Charlie and the Chocolate factory. A lovely boy who just wanted to help his family.

The BFG, as he sets a good example to children.

Willy Wonka because of his associations with chocolate!

Charlie from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory as I was so pleased when he won a Golden Ticket which he deserved!

Definitely the BFG. - a super story.

Willy Wonka - great personality!

Oompa Loompa - because they could bring me home some chocolate every day

Definitely the Twits because they are hilarious - mouldering cornflakes and sardine tails in Mr Twit's beard is an image forever conjured up at a moment's notice!!!

How can one choose one out of so many different marvellous characters

Bfg. These are just what my grandson needs to encourage him with his reading.

Got to be the BFG. Not a perfect character but his heart's in the right place, and despite being muddle-headed uses his strengths to the good .
