"If a person has ugly thoughts, it begins to show on the face. And when that person has ugly thoughts every day, every week, every year, the face gets uglier and uglier until it looks so ugly you can hardly bear to look at it."

How do you outwit a Twit? 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.

There are two mean people in this book are called Mr Twit and Mrs Twit and how they live their disgusting life. This book is a fiction book. I like the monkeys because there really sneaky. There cruelty to the animals is horrible. Our favourite part is when they are stuck on their heads. In fact, Mr Twit’s beard is terribly gross. Mrs Twits got a glass eye that always looks the other way. There mean to the monkeys and birds. Mrs Twit has a walking stick to hit people. They hate children. This book is really good. Our favourite character was Mr Twit. Mrs twit hits children with her ugly wooden walking stick and it leaves big red marks. They live in a house with no windows so it’s extremely dark they only have a few lights. I think it will be good for six and older We rate it 9 out of ten

The Twits Two nasty people who play naughty tricks on each other Suitable for people that like comedy and 7 and over. What I think about the Twits is they our evil and mean, horrible. Mr Twit is so gross because he has mouldy food in his beard it extremely gross I don’t know how people can look at him any way I don’t think people look at him because he is so gross. our fevered bit is when the monkeys get resend on the twits. I give it a 10/ 10.

Mr Twit is the nastiest person you could ever imagine. Hr even plays tricks on his wife. They are two horrible hags. Mrs Twits horrible she is always playing tricks on her husband. My favourite part was when the kids got stuck on the trees and jumped off the trees with their naked bottoms. My favourite part was when the Twits get stuck on their heads. It is a great book for people who are six and older. Our rating is 10 out of 10.

The book is about two nasty people who are really terrifying. Every Tuesday night they paint hug-tight glue on a tree called the dead, big tree. They cook bird pie every Tuesday after catching them from the tree. We liked it because it was a comedy and funny. We liked it because Roald Dahl wrote it. I like it because Mr and Mrs Twit play tricks on each other. I dislike the book because Mr Twit makes monkeys stand on their heads for six hours. I don’t like the book because the baby monkeys always faint. You will be surprised what happens at the end!
