小时候没有太多机会接触英文书籍，因此从来没有认真阅读过一本英文读物。在图书馆偶然看到Roald Dahl系列的读物，发现情节十分有趣而且使用的英语语法和词汇等都不会太难。因此，对于小朋友们或是想要尝试培养英语阅读习惯的读者，是个很好的开始。希望我也可以培养阅读英文读物的习惯，哈哈，就把这里当做我的阅读笔记吧（也分享给大家～）书本在小绿洲图书馆都借得到哦！:D
今天我们一起来看看 《Roald Dahl: The Twits》。
这本书叙述着一对“笨蛋”夫妇如何互相对付以及他们残忍对待小动物们被报复的下场。（情节脑洞大开，十分精彩！）
以下将于大家分享书内的一些摘录、生词和固有名词等 … 有兴趣就请看下去吧！
