Mr. and Mrs. Twit are the most disgusting people I’ve ever heard of or read about. As shown by the prolific writer Roald Dahl, they often play dirty tricks on each other. Yes, very dirty tricks such as putting a frog in bed and rejoicing when the other shrieks with terror after finding an unwelcome guest between blankets. But it is how they treat animals that is extremely disheartening. Mr. Twit, for instance, applies the most sticky adhesive on a tree outside their windowless house to trap birds for his favorite meal - bird pie. Mrs. Twit, on the other hand, keeps her monkeys standing upside down for days on end waiting for a never-arriving circus day where she intends to make lots of money. But like other bad characters, their day comes, soon after… Get a copy for your child, read and enjoy… There is a movie too, watch a part of it here
