I can't believe that parents would even think this book is great. I'm glad I didn't read this book in my school, but I'm upset my child read this garbage.
They were probably reading garbage like this. No wounder why we have so many shallow people in this world, and bullies in schools.
Whatever happened to books that inspire kids to forgive people who do them wrong. This book tells kids that ugly people are all mean, and beautiful people look like that because they are nice which is far from the truth.
There is to much violence that it is on the verge of sadism. Something is definetly not right with the school system, and Mr Dahl if this is your idea of a childrens book.
All I can do now is explain to my kid why this book is total, and complete garbage.
The Twits by Roal Dahl is about a woman and a man. Twit's cane and told her that she had a rare disease called, The Shrinks. Whenever she did it Mr. Twit and the man's name is Mr. I think the author wrote this book to entertain people. Twit. They always get in fights and they play pranks on each other.The setting of this story is in the country with only a few houses.The woman's name is Mrs. He said the only way to get rid of it is to tie her feet to the ground and connect her hands to a bunch of balloons, so that's just what she did.
The book doesn't give their first name.Like I said it is mainly about two people who play pranks on each other.My favorite part is when Mr. Twit added a piece of wood to Mrs. Twit cut the lines that connected her feet to the ground,She went up, up, and away into the sky.I like this book very much because it is very funny. I recommend this book to all boys or girls and 4th and 5th graders.
I read a negative review on this book and I disagree. I have started introducing chapter books for some time trying to increase listening skills and really holding their interest. I read this to my 4 year old son and my 5 1/2 year old daughter who both adored this book and belly laughed the entire way through each of the chapters. You can't shelter your child from everything, and in some cases I believe it is not to the child's benefit to shelter them- instead I believe if they are raised with love and respect for others, they will really be able to enjoy this intelligently written, hilarious, not to be taken seriously, book. This book did exactly that. The Twits play their mean clever tricks on one another for the entire book and one is just a bit funnier than the next but what comes around goes around as you will find out. If an adult is buying this book to read to a child, you will find it just as enjoyable and amusing as the child will. Fun for all.
Who wants their child to read a book about a hateful couple who spend the entire duration of the book fighting back and forth. I, for one, do not. Knowing that Dahl divorced shortly after this book was written makes me wonder if this was possibly a reflection of his feelings at the time.
They do practical jokes on each other. Eventhough I've read fine pieces of literature this month , my absolute favorite was The Twits by Roald Dahl.There are these two persons called Mr. Like glass eyeball in a beer, squiggly spagetti, frog in the bed. and Mrs. Twits. those are sorts of pranks they do on each other. Sure sometimes me and my brother do pranks on each other , but these ones are more wierder.
