Roald DahlCharacter Poems
Matilda
Matilda is kind and clever,
She will love Miss Honey forever.
She can sit with a book for hours,
She has fantastic powers!
The BFG
The BFG is big and strong,
His legs and arms are very long.
He catches dreams when it is light,
And gives them out when it is night.
Fantastic Mr Fox
Fantastic Mr Fox always has a trick,
To get some food and take his pick.
He is clever, cheeky and very fast,
Boggis, Bunce and Bean he gets past!

They smell and they are not clean.
They are not kind and they are not fun,
They like to play tricks on everyone.
