SHORT STORY for CHILDREN (15 Moral Stories)

Roald Dahl is hit or miss. Some stories come across as poignant and some as predictable, but they all carry that Dahlian message- adults are all secretly sour and ill intentioned, always scamming each other and fooling themselves. The results of their flaws always hit them in the face in a way that's tragic to the characters but comical to the reader.

That's why it was surprising for me that the final story, written from a child's perspective Dahl's strength seemed boring and predictable. But Roald Dahl is hit or miss. But that's Roald Dahl for you. He's hit or miss, but when he hits it's a delicious story. Feb 21, Hanna rated it really liked it.

My love for classics has been ignited ever since I read Jane Eyre, and here am I again reading classics for the course of English that I'm taking in high school. Very interesting read and one that I have enjoyed thoroughly even though I myself am not short story lover but more of a novella person. Nov 09, Gabriel Lit rated it really liked it. This book specifically the story "The Umbrella man" the theme is honesty because when the man stole the umbrella he should have told the truth he wanted the drink instead of saying he bought the umbrella for 20 pounds now the lady does not trust the man anymore or may be even more suspicious to men in the street and that may affect her future life and daughter life too.
