Spotty Powder and other Splendiferous Secrets

A treasure trove of Dahl! Amazing facts - some funny, some silly - and an original chapter from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory make this a splendiferous, surprising and delicious treat from the wonderful world of Roald Dahl!

Listen to Roald Dahl audiobooks read by some very famous voices, including Kate Winslet, David Walliams and Steven Fry - plus there are added squelchy soundeffects from Pinewood Studios!

Look out for new Roald Dahl apps in the App store and Google Play- including the disgusting TWIT OR MISS! inspired by the revolting Twits.

Reviews

Anne Fine at her wittiest

—— TES

Fine powerfully captures the chaos, frenetic activity and disharmony some families generate. The pace, humour and dramatic repartee could be those of an Alan Ayckbourn play

—— The Bookseller

There's a grim cast in this hilarious but barbed story of how Christmas can go so wrong for so many people

—— Guardian

Anne Fine works miracles with her just sharper-than-life observations

—— Junior Education

A gorgeously observed tale of what Christmas can really be like

—— Katie Nicholl , Daily Express
