his friends got caned for it (on their bottom)!

Norway. Roald's family was from Norway and every summer went to Norway and went to

boarding school. The boy was called Tweedy, and so it seems, one of Roald Dahl's
friends.

photographed one of the old Seven Wonders of the World. He took a picture of this as he

him learning how to fly planes. I highly recommend this!

Fives. He was so good at this; he was a Captain of Games because of his various talent
for different sports but was deleted off being, normally, a House Captain because he
wasn't the right character!
