Thanks for joining!

As you can see, I have gotten the blog started. It's not very pretty so if you like decorating I would love some help...
I was thinking we could each post about our favorite author or book(s). Here goes...

My favorite author, since I was young, is Roald Dahl. He lived in England and was a pilot during WW1. A few of his children's books have been made into movies, including James and the Giant Peach, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, and Matilda. Needless to say, the books are better than the movies and he has many more books. My favorite are his autobiographies which are very interesting. He has also written some short stories for adults that are not quite as entertaining, but very thought-provoking. I would recommend any of his books (except some of the adult stories), but my favorites are The BFG, George's Marvelous Medicine, Matilda, and Boy (his childhood autobiography).
