I think that his short stories were for adults and most of the rest of what we know him for were aimed at kids.

Matilda and The Witches. The Twits is fun but gross? You could try his biography and adult fiction as well.

Charlie and the Chocolate factory is a good one but I love Matilda! James and the Giant Peach is also good!. Didn’t like Charlie and the Great Glass Elevator as much and not a big fan of The BFG.

I’ve read 15 of his books. I especially liked Danny The Champion Of The World, The Twits, Matilda and The Witches. His books about his life, Boy and Going Solo were good too.

The story of Henry Sugar! But he has also written a lot of short stories about when he was a pilot in the war. Chilling but very intens and beautiful.
