Roald Dahl (Author) Roald Dahl was a spy, ace fighter pilot, chocolate historian and medical inventor. He was also the author of Matilda, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, The BFG and many more brilliant stories. Rikin Parekh (Illustrator) Rikin studied art at the Camberwell College of Arts and the University of Westminster. He has since worked storyboarding and designing monsters for the film industry and selling books for a national chain. He also works part-time as a Teaching Assistant in Primary schools in NW London and finds it extremely rewarding. When he's not drawing you'll probably find him at the cinema or at Comic Con.
