From disguising worms as spaghetti to gluing furniture to the ceiling, their antics are fueled by nastiness and spite. The couple also enslaves a family of monkeys—the Muggle-Wumps—forcing them to stand on their heads for hours in hopes of creating an upside-down monkey circus. Eventually, the clever monkeys, with help from a group of birds, turn the tables on the Twits in a clever revenge that leaves the grotesque pair trapped in their own meanness. The story, full of exaggerated characters and moral lessons, is a sharp critique of cruelty and ugliness—both physical and emotional—told with Dahl’s signature wit and Quentin Blake’s lively illustrations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-start=\"1018\" data-end=\"1059\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1022\" data-end=\"1059\"\u003eAbout the Author \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1061\" data-end=\"1759\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1061\" data-end=\"1075\"\u003eRoald Dahl\u003c\/strong\u003e (1916–1990) was a British author renowned for his imaginative and often darkly funny children’s books, including \u003cem data-start=\"1189\" data-end=\"1224\"\u003eCharlie and the Chocolate Factory\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem data-start=\"1226\" data-end=\"1235\"\u003eMatilda\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem data-start=\"1237\" data-end=\"1264\"\u003eJames and the Giant Peach\u003c\/em\u003e, and \u003cem data-start=\"1270\" data-end=\"1279\"\u003eThe BFG\u003c\/em\u003e.
