Roald the Mouse-boy

Seems our hero got his affection for mice from his creator, who got in huge trouble at boarding school for putting a dead mouse in a storekeeper's candy jar. Wow, we can connect that little incident to a whole bunch of Dahl stories! Truth and fiction are often intertwined, as revealed in this Dahl biography.
