Boy is an autobiographical book by British writer Roald Dahl. This book describes his life from birth until leaving school, focusing on living conditions in Britain in the 1920s and 1930s, the public school system at the time, and how his childhood experiences led him to writing as a career. It ends with his first job, working for Royal Dutch Shell. His autobiography continues in the book Going Solo. An expanded edition titled More About Boy was published in 2008, featuring the full original text and illustrations with additional stories, letters, and photographs. It presents humorous anecdotes from the author's childhood which includes summer vacations in Norway and an English boarding school.

(The second book in the Royal Dynasty series) Delicately beautiful daughter of a humble knight, she entered a world of treachery and betrayal when she married into a royal family that vowed to destroy her; the handsome nephew of the Queen, he was heir to a fortune but would have only her; he renounced his blood ties to possess the woman he loved; trapped in a labyrinth of shifting alliances and desperate intrigues, they endured the blood of battle and the pain of separation as they defied all in a bold quest for an eternal love.
