To pay Mrs Twit back for the worms in his spaghetti Mr Twit thought up a really clever nasty
trick . . . Mr Twit is a foul and smelly man who always has bits of cornflake and sardine in
his beard. Mrs Twit is scheming and sly and always thinking of the next horrible trick to play
on her husband. The Twits are so ghastly and evil that they even keep Muggle-Wump the monkey
and his family captive in their garden. But not for much longer! The monkeys are planning to
trick the terrible Twits so that they can escape and put a stop to the frightful pair once and
for all! The text in this edition of The Twits was updated in 2022 for young independent
readers.
