Rating: 5 stars
Summary: this book was the best roald dahl book ever!
Review: I LIKE THE PART WHEN MRS.TWIT GAVE MR.TWIT WORMY SPAGHETTI.THE ROLY-POLY BIRD WAS VERY FUNNY!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Unashamedly Funny
Review: This is one of Roald Dahl's best childrens' books, and the Twits are some of his most hysterical characters. Young children are sure to be amused by the humor and zaniness of this book, as well as the exaggerated, cartoony illustrations. They also might remember Muggle-Wump the monkey and the Roly Poly Bird from another Dahl book: The Enormous Crocodile. Altogether a satisfying and whimsical book for readers of all ages.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Not Boring
Review: I am 20 years old, and I love this book. It had lots of interesting stuff in it. How many people do you know who can fish lunch out of their beard?

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Best book by Roald Dahl ever!
Review: I like this book because the Twits love playing jokes on each other and I like to play jokes on my brother. People who like to play jokes on other people would like this book. The Twits have monkeys named the Mugle Wumps that the Twits have made slaves. The Mugle Wumps don't just want out they want revenge.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Roald Dahl has a zany sense of humor!
Review: Our book review is about a book called "The Twits" by Roald Dahl. We think this book is appropriate for third and fourth graders. Some 2nd graders and also some 5th graders might enjoy it. We would say "The Twits" is a comedy, because it has really funny words like 'gnash', 'gnozzle', 'batty', 'nutty', 'screwy' and 'wacky'! In the story this old, greasy, grimy, grumpy couple play very nasty tricks on each other. Some of us think they're even evil! The tricks are hilarious, but no one ever gets hurt or killed. The story takes place in the Twit's windowless house that looks like a prison. It also takes place in Mrs. Twit's ugly garden. The garden is full of stinging nettles, thorns, and a big, huge, dead tree. The main characters are the Twits, a monkey family, and the Roly-Poly Bird. The main problem is the Twits are abusive to each other and everyone else in the book, but in a funny way. For example, four boys get glued to the dead tree by their pants after Mr. Twit puts glue on the tree to catch birds. We would recommend this book because Roald Dahl's sense of humor is so zany it made us want to read more of his stories.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Do not eat and read this book at the same time!
Review: Oh YUK! I always thought ALL of Dahl's books were good, before I read The Twits! This book is just gross!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Not his best
Review: Roald Dahl is responsible for some of the finest novels of the twentieth century, children's books though they be. However, in later years he got a bit daffy, and failed to rise above the mere rout of disgusting characters. Some kids may find this enough, but everyone should go read "Danny Champion of the World" to see the author's true greatness.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This book is so entertaining! My kids loved this book!
Review: I am the mother of a 9 year old and 6 year old twins. Finding a book to be able to read to them all, at the same time, AND keep them interested, isnt an easy stask! Dahl's "The Twits" not only kept everyone interested, but quiet as well!!!! They just loved this book! Roald Dahl's ability to write descriptions in such a way that you don't need pictures, makes this a read a loud story even more memorable for everyone!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Funny and entertaining.
Review: I am an Elementary school librarian and my fifth and fourth grade students loved this book. I read it outloud and it kept the interest of all my students. Since reading the book, it has been in circulation and students are eagerly waiting to get their chance to check it out.
