Roald Dahl 羅爾德‧達爾（1916~1990）享譽文壇的英國兒童文學大師，其經典暢銷著作《巧克力冒險工廠》曾二度被翻拍為電影，至今仍廣受歡迎。

"I'm probably more pleased with my children's than with my adult short stories. Childern's books are harder to write It's tougher to keep a child interested because a child doesn't have the concentration of an adult. The child knows the television is in the next room. It's tough to hold a child, but it's a lovely thing to try to do."           ------Roald Dahl
