Don't mess with Roald Dahl's language or his "swashboggling" fans. When his UK publisher announced it would be changing some of his words, the response was fierce. "An affront to democracy," wrote one reader responding to The Daily Telegraph's report on the proposed changes. "An exercise in priggish stupidity," read a headline in The Sydney Morning Herald. Even the Queen Consort and U.K. Prime Minister dismissed the idea of tampering with Dahl's original language.
For readers who don't want tweaked versions of Matilda, The BFG, The Twits and other delightfully wicked Dahl tales, Penguin Random House Children's in the UK has announced The Roald Dahl Classic Collection. It's described as 17 titles that "will sit alongside the newly released Puffin Roald Dahl books for young readers, which are designed for children who may be navigating written content independently for the first time."
