The Visitor is taken from the short story.
Here, Uncle Oswald gets more than he bargained for in Arabia.
He didn’t just stop writing amazing books, he continued to write. Penguin presents the audiobook edition of The Visitor by Roald Dahl, read by Derek Jacobi and Richard E Grant.In The Visitor, Roald Dahl tells a funny, fruity story about one of his favourite characters, adventurer and seducer Oswald Hendryks Cornelius.
His sister died at age 7, his wife had a stroke, and his daughter died also at age 7.
His imagination is so crazy! Roald also shows resilience. Imagine flying a glass elevator into space, imagine getting plucked from your bed by a giant, and imagine crawling into a giant peach and finding giant insects waiting for you. He made up a lot of wacky words, like snozzcumber (BFG), Vermicious Knids (Charlie and the Great Glass Elevator), Oompa Loompas (Charlie and the Chocolate Factory), and many more words! He made up a lot of characters, too! The Trunchbull, the Big Friendly Giant, Willy Wonka, etc.
Roald Dahl possesses a LOT of creativity. Instead, he became a bestselling author! By 2016, 10.4 million books written by Roald Dahl have sold. He didn’t just give up on life when his plane crashed. But Roald Dahl was brave and he took a risk. There is a likely chance that you will lose your life. Many people would probably be scared to risk their lives for their country. I think Roald Dahl showed bravery when he joined the Royal Air Force. His books include: Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, James and the Giant Peach, The BFG, and many others. After his plane crash-landed, he recovered and became an author. When he was older, he joined the Royal Air Force during WWII. His parents, Harald Dahl and Sofie Magdalene Hesselberg, were Norwegian immigrants. Roald Dahl was born on Septemin Llandaff, Wales. I truly believe Roald Dahl possesses these traits. My hero, Roald Dahl possesses these four character traits, bravery, creativity, resilience, and perseverance. People with disabilities that persevere, athletes, and in this case, authors. They can be admired for their achievements, courage, or something else. I believe a hero is someone you look up to and admire. Carl Van Vechten / Public domain via Wikimedia
