Boy is a story of Roald Dahl’s childhood. “Boy” opens with Roald Dahl’s father, Harald Dahl, running away with his brother to France. Uncle Oscar went to La Rochelle, and Harald Dahl set up a business with a Mr Aednesan in Cardiff. He had married and had a daughter and a son, but his wife died after giving birth to the boy. Harald Dahl looked for a stepmother, and then met and married Sofie Hesselburg, who she gave birth to five children, Roald Dahl and his four sisters.
The rest of the book explains in great detail about Roald Dahl’s eventful, amusing and interesting childhood. After a great deal of amusing and horrible events, the soon-to-be author went to a great finishing school, Repton. ’’Boy” is a great book to enjoy. “Boy” goes from when Harald Dahl was fourteen to when Roald Dahl was starting his job. The book “Boy” shows us that truth is stronger than fiction.
I have enjoyed this book a lot. But what I think is that if there wasn’t this people in his life, the story would be boring and would not have been interested. However, “Boy” is definitely as exciting as one of Roald Dahl’s other books. The style of writing is simple and you can understand it very well.
I would recommend this book to people who like Roald Dahl. It would be great to know his fantastic childhood and know about famous author more.
I like you beginning because it was done in creative way. But I wanted your ending to be more wrong not recommending someone a book.
