He flew again and served briefly as a flight instructor after his recovery, and then he became a diplomat in Washington, D.C. In 1940, Dahl was seriously injured in a crash landing that temporarily robbed him of his sight.
Following school, Dahl worked for Shell Oil until World War II, in which Dahl served as a fighter pilot.
However, Dahl’s school days were unpleasant for him-he hated the hazing rituals and prevalence of corporal punishment. Rather than return to Norway to live near family, Dahl’s mother remained in Wales so her children could be educated in English schools. When he was still very young, Dahl’s sister and father died within weeks of each other. In a statement made to Variety by the Roald Dahl Story Company, a spokesperson said the edits were made in conjunction with Puffin and Inclusive Minds to "ensure that Roald Dahl’s wonderful stories and characters continue to be enjoyed by all children today." Inclusive Minds is a "collective for people who are passionate about inclusion and accessibility in children’s literature." This review of Dahl's work reportedly began in 2020 after his vast catalog of stories and characters was acquired by Netflix.Dahl was born in Cardiff, Wales in 1916 to Norwegian immigrant parents.
As for Matilda, which was first published in 1988, descriptions for Miss Trunchbull were altered from "most formidable female" to "most formidable woman." In Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, the Oompa Loompas were originally described as "small men," but are now described as "small people" and "Bunce, the little pot-bellied dwarf" is now just "Bunce" in Fantastic Mr. Several other 2022 editions of Dahl's books have edited out the word "fat," including The Enormous Crocodile (1978), James and the Giant Peach (1961), The Twits (1980) and The Witches (1983).
