Roald Dahl was a spy, ace fighter pilot, chocolate historian, and medical inventor. He was also the author of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Matilda, The BFG, and many more brilliant stories. He remains the world's number one storyteller. Matthew Fitt is a novelist, poet and translator. An acknowledged expert in the field of Scots language education, he has written numerous children’s books and translated a number of titles into Scots including Roald Dahl’s The Eejits and Geordie’s Mingin Medicine, and J. K. Rowling’s Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stane. He is co-founder of and contributing author to the Itchy Coo imprint. Quentin Blake has illustrated more than 300 books and was Roald Dahl's favorite illustrator. In 1980 he won the prestigious Kate Greenaway medal. In 1999 he became the first ever Children's Laureate and in 2013 he was knighted for services to illustration.
