MONDAY, June 5th @ 7pm: JUNE SHORTS ~ Roald Dahl at War

Roald Dahl was a British popular author of children's literature and short stories, a poet, and wartime fighter ace. He rose to prominence as a writer in the 1940s with works for children and for adults, and he became one of the world's best-selling authors. His books have sold more than 300 million copies worldwide. Dahl has been called "one of the greatest storytellers for children of the 20th century".                                                                                                                                                    Dahl's short stories are known for their unexpected endings, and his children's books for their unsentimental, macabre, often darkly comic mood, featuring villainous adult enemies of the child characters.

Tonight Kayden and Caledonia share a different side of Dahl from the popular author of "James & The Giant Peach" and the Wonka books. In the short stories "Shot Down Over Libya" and "Beware of the Dog" Dahl explores the World War II experience.

Faerie shares more stories from one of the 20th century's notable storytellers, Roald Dahl, and his collection "The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar."

“I began to realize how important it was to be an enthusiast in life. He taught me that if you are interested in something, no matter what it is, go at it at full speed ahead. Embrace it with both arms, hug it, love it, and above all become passionate about it. Lukewarm is no good. Hot is no good either. White hot and passionate is the only thing to be.”

—My Uncle Oswald

 “A person who has good thoughts cannot ever be ugly. You can have a wonky nose and a crooked mouth a double chin and stick-out teeth, but if you have good thoughts they will shine out of your face like sunbeams and you will always look lovely.”

—The Twits
