James has co-written a spin-off of The Twits with Chris Smith, while a short story collection, Charlie and the Christmas Factory, will be published in October
The Twits and Matilda are among the much-loved Roald Dahl characters set to appear in brand new stories inspired by the late British author’s work, due to be published later this year.
Stories written by Greg James, Adam Kay and Konnie Huq will celebrate Dahl’s “unique sense of the extraordinary, the magical and the mischievous”, said Ruth Knowles, publishing director at Puffin.
