  <default_description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;&quot;An autobiography is a book a person writes about his own life and it is usually full of all sorts of boring details.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This is not an autobiography. I would never write a history of myself. On the other hand, throughout my young days at school and just afterwards a number of things happened to me that I have never forgotten.&quot; -- Roald Dahl&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;As full of excitement and the unexpected as his world-famous, bestselling books, Roald Dahl's tales of his own childhood are completely fascinating and fiendishly funny. Did you know that Roald Dahl nearly lost his nose in a car accident? Have you heard about his involvement in the Great Mouse Plot of 1924? If not, you don't yet know all there is to know about Roald Dahl. Sure to captivate and delight you, the boyhood antics of this master storyteller are not to be missed!&lt;/p&gt;Performed by Derek Jacobi</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[A quick read (I read it in the hours I was sitting around waiting to see if I would be picked for jury duty). I have come to really enjoy Roald Dahl--I don't think he was a particular favorite of mine as a child.

It's like Roald Dahl was your buddy and for each time you were together, he told you pieces of his life when he was very young. It is not as grandiose as say Frank McCourt's ANGELA'S ASHES (that was not all true according to its critics). In fact...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/76990911">more...</a>]]></body>
