“Vile Verses was the most recent Dahl Release after his death. This book is filled with classic Roald Dahl style poetry but this time he has incorporated some known and beloved characters from popular films and text. Though most of Dahl's poetry books are light hearted, he has in fact incorporated some 'vile verses' in this one.

I chose this book because I have always loved Roald Dahl's work, and during one of our book shares this book was brought in. I loved the incorporation of older characters from some of his books, and thought that was really fun.
I would keep this in a middle school or high school English classroom when studying poetry.”
“Vile Verse (2005) is a humorous book of poetry by Roald Dahl. He is best remembered as the author of many well-loved children's stories. But he was also the creator of some astonishingly imaginative and wonderfully disgusting verses. This book is an extraordinary collection with Dahl's poems, verses, and songs. It is filled with almost all poems he wrote during his career and even some from child hood!

Vile Verses has made me laugh a lot, but still be aware of disgustingly-funny rhymes. (But most of them are not so disgusting, they are mostly funny).
The full-color original illustrations from a well-established group of more than twenty artists like Quentin Blake, R. Dahl's principal illustrator make this book very special and exiting. I LOVE Vile Verses and I will always love it, and I hope you will also enjoy it too.”
“This book it contains a lot of nice and interesting stories. Let me tell you some interesting stories that I had read from this book...Snow White and the seven dwarfs,The tortoise and the hare etc. All stories are rewrite by roald dhal. ”
