    Needing to read this and three others for the Wes Anderson short films. A very good way of doing audiobooks. A clear consise voice, the text going down to easily follow it, and is the complete book.

    Oh my! Another macabre tale from Roald Dahl. Well read, thank you. I would love to know the chronology behind his stories - whether he wrote these somewhat twisted, scary ones all at one time, or intermittently between his children’s books etc. i’ve often thought that children’s books (grandma-eating wolves, child-eating giants and so on) were just a short step from being horrific. Dahl seems to prove it, eek! 😳

      Yes, he has a way of bringing in a twisted and macabre ending. I have found some information about his bibliography. Maybe I will do a video speaking about it. Did you know he wrote Chitty Chitty bang bang?

      @@lewiskirk8289 ... No I didn’t. I look forward to hearing more about his bibliography. I particularly liked the stories of his childhood and time in the war, as well as the Mildenhall Treasure . I migrated to Australia in 1970 and occasionally visit family back in England. I haven’t been able to visit lately because of Covid-19 but if the world can overcome this disruptive pandemic, I really must revisit UK and go and view that treasure in the museum! I have listened to that story many, many times.

    I am unsure how you would feel about this, but could you make like a book or two of Andrew Clements? Your voice as reading style fits perfectly for his books and I love them. Aside from recommendations, you are one of the best readers in my opinion and should narrate for audible or even become a writer. You have a clear map of this kind of literature and you could make some really good books. I’m 11 and even I have an opinion that you have a fine future in literature if you’re up for it and interested. -Snake

      Hey. Thanks for the suggestions and encouragement. I will keep the Andrew Clements books in mind.
      I actually did begin writing a novel and have the first few chapters up on the channel if you are interested. Look for the 'finding felicity' playlist. Glad to hear you are enjoying the audioebooks. 👍

    Just saw the Wes Anderson short. Ole Bill Jonesy was dead in the hay crick!!!!!!?!?!?!!! is that ever implied in the story? If anderson added that on his own, hes brilliant. when i was a kid i thought "someone was feeding the rats" plain and simple. BILL JONESY was "feeding the rats" If i missed that detail in the story ill be shocked. gonna have a listen now. Thanks, mate.

      @@lewiskirk8289 It's hard to argue with Ralph Fiennes. But I noticed the book says the Rat Catcher was brown. Given how few black people (never any black women) Wes Anderson has in his movies, this would have been a chance.

    What don’t think this is representative of his macabre stories. It’s a little disgusting. His stories are more like the Land Lady.
