post b (week 2)

Dear Roald Dahl,
It is very interesting to read about your childhood. I can see where you get most of your ideas for your books. Your stories of bording school were very sad. The ways in which childeren were treated in the past are terrible. The censorship, the beatings, and the constant fear that you had to endure was eye-opening.

The tales of surgeries in the past disgusted me. When they just pulled out your tonsils with out any pain killers or gloves, or even a hospital, I was horrified and a bit nauseas. Also when you sister got her apendix out and they did it at you house, and you got to keep the appendix to look at was gross.

So far I am really enjoying your book. It is nice to read a happy book once in a while.
