The story

What Is Dirty Beasts About?

The premise of Dirty Beasts without spoilers.

Roald Dahl, master of wicked humour, presents a ghastly menagerie of dirty beasts who engage in extraordinary, unmentionable deeds, all rendered in irreverent, absurdly comic verse. Among them are Crocky‑Wock, a crocodile who devours six young children every Saturday, and Miss Milky Daisy, a cow who harshly punishes a very rude man.
