Who Made It?

Roald Dahl wrote many of his wonderful books in a little shed in his garden. He called it his ‘writing hut’ and wrote in this hut for about four hours every day. Within this hut, Dahl left behind some interesting objects, like a great big ball made of chocolate wrappers and a piece of his hip bone that had to be removed.

Carlsbad Caverns, located in New Mexico, was created by sulfuric acid instead of water erosion, as is the case with most limestone caves. The caverns are home to as many as 300,000 Mexican free-tail bats that stream out of the caverns each night in search of food.

When the Amazon Kindle was first released, it sold out in five-and-a-half hours. The groundbreaking e-reader remained out of stock for 5 months! The device's name came from branding consultants Michael Cronan and Karin Hibma, who suggested ‘Kindle’, meaning to light a fire.
