Official synopsis Publisher
Roald Dahl’s irreverent and hilarious collection, Revolting Rhymes. Read along and listen! This book is filled with revolting rhymes. (Be warned: It’s no ordinary Once upon a time). There’s poor Cindy whose heart was torn to shreds, because her Prince, he chops off heads! Snow White’s dwarfs although awfully nice, are guilty of one shocking vice . . . And what becomes of Goldilocks, that nasty thieving little louse, when she goes sneaking around the three bear’s house . . . Animated film for BBC1 based on the Revolting Rhymes by Magic Light Pictures, producers of the Oscar nominated The Gruffalo and Room On The Broom, scheduled for Christmas 2016, Roald Dahl’s centenary year. Listen to REVOLTING RHYMES and other Roald Dahl audiobooks read by some very famous voices, including Kate Winslet, David Walliams and Steven Fry – plus there are added squelchy soundeffects from Pinewood Studios! Look out for new Roald Dahl apps in the App store and Google Play- including the disgusting TWIT OR MISS! inspired by the revolting Twits.
