PRODUCT SUMMARY


Students learn Dahl's four rules of writing and how he uses the techniques to build reader interest in his characters and plots. Includes a study guide.

The rules include:

  • Make the reader laugh with weird, funny names, sounds and nonsense words.

  • Make the reader squirm with outrageously disgusting things.

  • Make the reader be enthralled with magical settings.

  • Make the reader tense with surprise.
