My favorite book -- 'My Uncle Oswald'



My favorite book is ‘My Uncle Oswald’ by Roald Dahl. It is a wonderful fiction story about the author’s amazing uncle. Uncle Oswald is a traveler, an inventor and someone who has the most interesting life ever. This story is about the early part of his long career. One of his most interesting adventures involves collecting the sperm of many famous, rich and interesting men of the time he lives in. Roald Dahl is very famous for writing children’s stories like ‘Charlie and the Chocolate Factory’ or ‘George’s Marvelous Medicine’ but this is definitely not a book for children although it has a childlike magic. It is a very imaginative and funny book and I could not put it down once I had started to read it. The main character, Uncle Oswald, is someone I wish I knew! I would recommend this book to anyone who likes comedy and adventure.
