I have just started reading some Roald Dahl books to my nearly 6 year old son. I have read Fantasic Mr Fox and just started the BFG. My son asked for this next as is familiar with the story from the film. A year ago I tried to read him my favourite book, Danny the Champion on the World. I got as far as the first few lines where Danny's mum dies and he cried for ages and began worrying about me dying - so I quickly gave up!
In what order do you think the books should be read? I mean what do you think are the least dark and easiest to understand? I was keen to read Matilda but when I glanced at it I realised that the wording was more complex than I remembered.
