They don't just want out, they want revenge.<br><br><b>Author:</b> Roald Dahl<br><b>Publisher:</b> Viking Books for Young Readers<br><b>Published:</b> 08/16/2007<br><b>Pages:</b> 112<br><b>Binding Type:</b> Paperback<br><b>Weight:</b> 0.20lbs<br><b>Size:</b> 7.60h x 5.10w x 0.40d<br><b>ISBN:</b> 9780142410394<br><b>Audience:</b> Ages 9-12<br><br><b>Accelerated Reader:</b><br><b>Reading Level:</b> 4.4<br><b>Point Value:</b> 1<br><b>Interest Level:</b> Lower Grade<br><b>Quiz #/Name: </b>9297 / Twits<br><br><br><b>Review Citation(s): </b><br><i>Newsweek</i> 09/28/2009 pg. 66<br><p><b>About the Author</b><br><b>Roald Dahl</b> (1916-1990) was born in Wales of Norwegian parents.
