As a pilot Roald Dahl came to know all about gremlins. These mythical, little creatures were what pilots and engineers blamed for unexplained mechanical failures, but for Roald they were to open the door to much greater things. The first book he wrote, "The Gremlins", was bought by Walt Disney and attracted the attention of the American president's wife, Eleanor Roosevelt, who read it to her grandchildren. Consquently, Roald was invited to the White House and became very friendly with the Roosevelt family.
