Esio Trot
Mr. Hoppy is a lonely old man that lives in an apartment building and is in love with Mrs. Silver, the lady that lives directly by him. Mrs. Silver lives with the love of her life though. His name is Alfie and he is a tortoise. Mr. Hoppy tries to help Mrs. Silver figure out what will make Alfie grow because he doesn’t seem to be growing like he should. Mr. Hoppy goes out all over town and buys all the tortoises in different sizes bigger than Alfie so that he can trick Mrs. Silver into thinking that Alfie actually does get bigger every two weeks. All along over the months, Mrs. Silver doesn’t suspect a thing is going on different and finally invites Mr. Hoppy up and he proposes marriage to her. She says she thought he would never ask and they live happily ever after. All the while, Mr. Hoppy gets rid of all the tortoises and brings the real Alfie back. Mr. Hoppy reverses the poem that Mrs. Silver read to Alfie to make him grow and he shrinks back to his normal size. Mr. Hoppy donates all of the tortoises that he bought to whomever the pet stores wanted to give them to.
The Magic Finger
An eight year old girl is neighbors with the Gregg family. Mr. Gregg and his two boys LOVE to go hunting. The week before she tells the story, something very strange happened. She absolutely can’t stand people that hunt or hunting itself and she gets very mad and sees red. When this happens, she gets the magic finger and says she is going to “lay” the magic finger on the Gregg’s. The next time the Gregg’s go hunting, they try to shoot some ducks. As the girl has laid the magic finger on them, the Gregg’s are turned into ducks. They lose their arms and have wings. They have to live in the nest while the ducks go live in their house and they are more human than the Gregg’s are. The Gregg’s quickly realize that maybe they need to stop hunting so much as the ducks have taken over their home and food. The house is in shambles from the water that overflows in the bathtub. As much as they realize their mistakes after having to live like birds overnight, they realize that they need to appreciate the lives they had and say they will never go hunting again. After this is all said and done, the Gregg’s wake up and realize that the curse has been broken and they are back to normal. The Gregg’s never go hunting again!
The Twits
Mr. and Mrs. Twit are the weirdest people around. They don’t know how to be nice to anyone, let alone be nice to each other. One is always trying to outwit the other one. Their favorite food is bird pie. The poor muggle-wumps have to stand on their head all day but sometimes the monkeys (muggle-wumps) outsmart the Twits. They glue the carpet on the ceiling and change the furniture around and it drives the Twits crazy! Mrs. Twit cooks spaghetti for dinner but puts worms in it instead of noodles. The Twits get stuck on the ceiling which is really the floor and they get the “dreaded” shrinks and disappear forever! Everyone was so happy when Fred, the meter reader, discovered that the Twits were gone!
 The BFG or in other words, The Big Friendly Giant, takes Sphie from her orphanage one night in this story. She is afraid he will eat her, but he is not a man-eating giant like the other giants. He eats yucky vegetables. The BFG’s main thing is catching dreams and blowing them into children’s bedrooms at night. Sophie works with BFG to devise a dream to tell the queen about the other mean giants that are eating people. Then, the queen then gets the military to capture the other giants while they are sleeping and take them to exile. There they have to stay in a huge pit and eat the yucky vegetables like the BFG eats. The BFG gets a big house and Sophie gets a little cottage beside him in the end.

They get to the promised land where all the work of the farmers was kept. They found the key to their survival and also escaped being captured from the farmers.

Answer:
Dahl was born in Wales to Norwegian immigrant parents. He served in the Royal Air Force during the Second World War. He became a fighter pilot and, subsequently, an intelligence officer, rising to the rank of acting wing commander. He rose to prominence as a writer in the 1940s with works for children and for adults, and he became one of the world's best-selling authors. He has been referred to as "one of the greatest storytellers for children of the 20th century".His awards for contribution to literature include the 1983 World Fantasy Award for Life Achievement and the British Book Awards' Children's Author of the Year in 1990. In 2008, The Times placed Dahl 16th on its list of "The 50 Greatest British Writers Since 1945".However, he and his work have been criticised for antisemitism, racism and misogyny.
Dahl's short stories are known for their unexpected endings, and his children's books for their unsentimental, macabre, often darkly comic mood, featuring villainous adult enemies of the child characters.His children's books champion the kindhearted and feature an underlying warm sentiment.His works for children include James and the Giant Peach, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Matilda, The Witches, Fantastic Mr Fox, The BFG, The Twits, and George's Marvellous Medicine. His adult works include Tales of the Unexpected.
