For fans, new readers,

parents, uncles and aunts and grandparents

who read Roald Dahl when they were children, and librarians and teachers

who use Roald Dahl in the classroom


‘It’s hard to find the right word to express our levels of excitement around

the Oxford Roald Dahl Dictionary. Squackling? Jumpsquiffling? Gigantuous?

Roald Dahl’s inventive, playful use of language is such a key element of his writing, whether

he was using existing words in his own mischievous way or inventing extra-usual new ones. It is wonderful to have this dictionary compiled with such expertise, passion and

wit by Dr Susan Rennie and the team at OUP. There could be no more fitting way to pay tribute to Roald in the year of celebrations

for his centenary. Best of all, as a fully-functioning dictionary for readers and writers aged eight and above, I hope it serves as a swashboggling source of inspiration for a

whole new generation of storytellers.’LUKE KELLY, MANAGING DIRECTOR OF THE ROALD DAHL

LITERARY ESTATE AND ROALD DAHL’S GRANDSON

Trickster WRITTEN BY TOM MOORHOUSE

An epic animal fantasy from a highly acclaimed author.

Gabble was never sure why he did it. Or what their lives would have been if he had not . . .

This is the story of Gabble, a young rat with a wild, beloved, but unpredictable brother, Ash. Ash tricks Gabble into going out with him on a ‘name raid’, a dangerous mission normally reserved for older rats.

• Exciting, adventurous, pacy story with great characters.

• Conjures up a powerful, believable, yet slightly alien, world of rats running alongside our own world.

• From a master storyteller with a fast-growing reputation.

Then he must live it.First a rat must earn his name.

Dreaming the BearWRITTEN BY MIMI THEBO

Dad made me come to this snowy wilderness. My natural habitat is the shopping mall and the multi-screen cinema. I miss my friends and I’m not good at skiing or chopping wood . . . or living without wi-fi.

Mum, Dad, and Jem are all thriving here but I’m getting weaker and sicker with each day that passes.

Then I find the bear. She’s huge and scary, but she makes me feel . . . alive . . . and connected to this amazing place. The thing is, she needs me just as much as I need her. And I don’t know if I’m strong enough . . .

• A beautifully-written lyrical tale that will stay with the reader long after they put the book down.
