Dream Jar Trails

I'm guessing most of you know who Roald Dahl is. I mean he's only one of the most famous authors of all time. He's written some of the most famous books ever, such as Charlie And The Chocolate Factory, The BFG, Matilda and The Twits and that's just to name a few. He not only wrote children's books he also wrote adults books.

Ronald Dahl wasn't only an author either. He was also in the Air Force, and if you thought that that was cool, just wait until you hear this: he was also a Spy like James Bond. "The name is Dahl, Roald Dahl." I mean, wow, his life was awesome.

This year marks Roald Dahl's 100th birthday, although sadly he is not here for it for he died when he was 74. In celebration of his life, celebrities such as Prof Steven Hawking, Simon Cowell, Graham Norton and Steven Spielberg (to name a few) have designed dream jars.
Dream Jars are jars that famous people have designed that represent a dream that they have had.

My family and I have been on the hunt for Dream Jars and tonight we are gonna look for a dream jar with real gold in it. Pretty cool, huh?


Here is a selection of the Dream Jars I have found so far:
