The Twits
Roald Dahl, Quentin Blake
The Twits are possibly the nastiest and most digusting of all Roald Dahl’s characters.
Frogs in beds; Eyeballs in drinks; Worms in spaghetti
Mr and Mrs Twit are really disgusting. They smell because they never wash, they fight because they play tricks on each other, AND they hate children. But worst of all, they keep monkeys in their back garden. In cages. It’s time for the monkeys to get their revenge on these two most revolting creatures . . .
meet the Muggle-Wump monkeys and the Roly-Poly bird!*
with a great new cover by Quentin Blake, and a whole exciting section about Roald Dahl and his world***
‘A true genius . . . Roald Dahl is my hero’ – David Walliams
Roald Dahl, the best-loved of children’s writers, was born in Wales of Norwegian parents. After school in England he went to work for Shell in Africa. He began to write after ""a monumental bash on the head"", sustained as an RAF pilot in World War II. Roald Dahl died in 1990.
Quentin Blake is one of the best-known and best-loved children’s illustrators and it’s impossible now to think of Roald Dahl’s writings without imagining Quentin Blake’s illustrations.

I liked the book a lot but it was kinda dark (especially at the end where the twist d!3, by the way I mean die) and I think that the movie honestly had a better storyline for kids (turned into a story about the twits bonding over a dream before getting shut down and becoming cruel, they are anti-heroes)

I liked this book because four children were on the tree that Mr Twit had glued, but they jumped off and escaped even though they had no trousers on.

I didn’t like it when the birds got stuck to the tree with glue and I didn’t like the mr and mrs twit characters they were not kind.
Inspector Crocodile Windchime 25.07.2026
Funny story.
General Marge Gooseberry 24.07.2026
I loved how the mugglewumps tricked the nasty smelly twits into gluing their heads to the floor. They were not very nice to the animals especially the birds who they glued to the trees. It was a funny book and im glad the mugglewumps got free.
General Cornelius Teacup 21.07.2026
The Twits get stuck upside down on their heads and this interests me. Some clothes get glued to them accidentally.
