Let’s be honest: Mr and Mrs Twit are absolutely revolting, and that is exactly why children love them. Mr Twit is a foul man with a beard full of old sardines and cornflakes. Mrs Twit is just as nasty, and she even has a glass eye that she uses to spy on people. Together, they spend their days playing the most horrible tricks on one another: from wormy spaghetti to shrinking chairs. The Twits is Roald Dahl at his mischievous best, delivering a story that is as funny as it is frightful. Perfect for New Independent Readers This 2022 Puffin edition has been specifically updated for young independent readers. With its manageable length and the iconic, energetic illustrations of Quentin Blake, it is the ideal "bridge" book for children moving away from picture books. It is short, punchy, and filled with the kind of dark humour that makes Key Stage 2 students actually want to keep turning the pages. Why Every Child Needs a Copy: Timeless Humour: The "prank war" between the Twits is a concept that never gets old for kids. A Lesson in Kindness: Beneath the gross out jokes is the famous message: if you have good thoughts, they will shine out of your face like sunbeams. Collectable Design: This edition looks fantastic alongside other Roald Dahl classics on a bedroom shelf. The Bottom Line? Whether it is for a school book report or a rainy afternoon laugh, The Twits remains a mandatory rite of passage for every child. At Books2Door, we love bringing these legendary stories to families at prices that make sense. Grab your copy and prepare for some truly "twit-tastic" mayhem.
