《壞心的夫妻消失了》
羅德．達爾是舉世聞名的作家，創作故事高潮迭起、諷刺幽默，且又充滿人性關懷。作品還改編成電影上映，如國人所熟知的《巧克力冒險工廠》、《飛天巨桃歷險記》，近年的《吹夢巨人》，《小魔女》更是大家童年的精采回憶。

Mr. and Mrs. Twit are the smelliest, nastiest, ugliest people in the world. They hate everything—except playing mean jokes on each other, catching innocent birds to put in their Bird Pies, and making their caged monkeys, the Muggle-Wumps, stand on their heads all day. But the Muggle-Wumps have had enough. They don't just want out, they want revenge.

　　Roald Dahl為了娛樂他的4位小孩，在1960開始致力於兒童故事的寫作，為孩子們創作了十九部暢銷全球的兒童文學作品。其中以《女巫》(The Witches)，榮獲英國兒童文學「惠特比獎」及賣座電影《巧克力冒險工廠》也來自於他的作品Charlie and the Chocolate Factory，其他名作如Matilda, The BFG, The Magic Finger...等等，加上名插畫家Quentin Blake的巧手，讓人在閱讀的過程中，充滿了趣味。


　　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
