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.
