Includes List of Other Books For Children by Roald Dahl; Author Dedication; and Preliminary Page Author Note. Illustrated with black-and-white photographs, black-and-white drawings, and black-and-white photographic front and rear endpapers. Stated on the copyright page: "First American Edition" 10th printing. "I am only eight years old, I told myself. No little boy of eight has ever murdered anyone. It's not possible. So thought Roald Dahl in 1924 when his plan to get revenge on the mean and disgusting candy-store owner Mrs. Pratchett seemed to have worked all too well. Writing about this and other boyhood adventures, the author has recalled only those that stand out as spectacular. "Some are funny. Some are painful. Some are unpleasant. I suppose that is why I have always remembered them so vividly. All are true." We are told of his first automobile ride, in which he nearly lost his nose; of the canings by Headmasters and older schoolboys; and of the grisly methods of Matrons, those guardians against misbehavior who supervised the dormitories. There were glorious times, too, with his big family at home in Wales; on holiday each summer on a remote island in Norway; and in the class of an endearing math teacher who thought numbers the dreariest things in the world. Roald Dahl's adventures and misadventures during his school years are crowded with people as strange and wonderful as any character he has created and are as exciting and full of the unexpected as his celebrated fiction." - from the inner front jacket flap.

Description: A first edition, softcover published by Farrar Straus Giroux in 1984. A fine copy SIGNED and INSCRIBED on the front inside cover 'To Douglas/Love/Roald/'. A lovely copy with a strong association to Dahl himself. Douglas Highton attended St Peter's Prep School in Weston-super-Mare with Roald Dahl. As a friend, Douglas supported Roald during an incident at school, which Roald would never forget and later recounted in his autobiographical book 'Boy'. Douglas also appears anecdotally in the short story 'Lucky Break', and as a character in the short story 'The Swan'. The two stayed in touch over the years and Douglas would visit Roald at home in Great Missenden where Roald kindly signed many books for Douglas' grandchildren, Andrew and Rebecca
