| Well my Mum had said i'd like Tales of the Unexpected or something, by Roald Dahl- so i asked where i'd find Roald Dahl (cos i know he did children's books too, but that'd be wrong!) and they pointed me in the right direction- and upon browsing Dahl's books (i didn't know there were so many!) i found Kiss Kiss :) |
