Na Gamail (The Twits) is one of Roald Dahl’s most popular children’s books.

The Muggle-Wumps have had enough.

Roald Dahl’s The Twits tells the tale of a pair of horrible twits and the tricks they like to play on each other. Mr and Mrs Twit are the smelliest, ugliest people in the world. They hate everything — except playing mean jokes on each other, catching innocent birds to put in their Bird Pies, and making their caged monkeys, the Muggle-Wumps, stand on their heads all day. But the Muggle-Wumps have had enough. They don’t just want out, they want revenge.

Na Gamail and other Irish language books by Roald Dahl are available from our online bookshop.

Go dtí go dtapaíonn moncaithe agus éin an deis a éagóir a chúiteamh leo…
