Boy es el relato de la infancia de Roald Dahl.

Momentos familiares maravillosos se mezclan con otros más tristes, y aventuras llenas de peligro siguen a otras desternillantes. La pérdida de su padre y su hermana, el gran complot de los ratones, las vacaciones en una remota isla, los castigos en el colegio y el paseo que casi le cuesta la nariz son sólo algunos de los inolvidables episodios de este libro lleno de aventuras.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Where did Roald Dahl get all of his wonderful ideas for stories?

From his own life, of course! As full of excitement and the unexpected as his world-famous, best-selling books, Roald Dahl's tales of his own childhood are completely fascinating and fiendishly funny. Did you know that Roald Dahl nearly lost his nose in a car accident? Or that he was once a chocolate candy tester for Cadbury's? Have you heard about his involvement in the Great Mouse Plot of 1924? If not, you don't yet know all there is to know about Roald Dahl. Sure to captivate and delight you, the boyhood antics of this master storyteller are not to be missed!

About the Author

Roald Dahl nació en 1916 en un pueblecito de Gales (Gran Bretaña) llamado Llandaff en el seno de una familia acomodada de origen noruego. A los cuatro años pierde a su padre y a los siete entra por primera vez en contacto con el rígido sistema educativo británico que deja reflejado en algunos de sus libros, por ejemplo, en Matilda y en Boy.

Terminado el Bachillerato y en contra de las recomendaciones de su madre para que cursara estudios universitarios, empieza a trabajar en la compañía multinacional petrolífera Shell, en África. En este continente le sorprende la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Después de un entrenamiento de ocho meses, se convierte en piloto de aviación en la Royal Air Force; fue derribado en combate y tuvo que pasar seis meses hospitalizado.

Después fue destinado a Londres y en Washington empezó a escribir sus aventuras de guerra.

Su entrada en el mundo de la literatura infantil estuvo motivada por los cuentos que narraba a sus cuatro hijos. En 1964 publica su primera obra, Charlie y la fábrica de chocolate. Escribió también guiones para películas; concibió a famosos personajes como los Gremlins, y algunas de sus obras han sido llevadas al cine.

Roald Dahl murió en Oxford, a los 74 años de edad.
