Twain in 1867






Roald Dahl

 Re-read/listened about 10 chapters of Tom Sawyer by Mark Twain on twitter. I last read this book about three decades ago. It was so wonderful and refreshing. Mark just like other children book writers such as Roald Dahl capture the child's perspective so well. Wish I could do the same. Coincidentally I bought a biography of Roald Dahl yesterday and am now reading it. Hopefully I will be able to use the insights of these two great children's book writers to complete similar books I am working on.
