One recurring theme in Roald Dahl's books is the domination by a female character, for example, the hideous headmistress in Matilda and the wicked, ugly stepaunts in James and the Giant Peach. Another theme is fantasy - again, both Matilda and James and the Giant Peach, together with Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, incorporate ordinary children in the most extraordinary circumstances. Unfair treatment by dominant adults is another theme, as seen in Matilda, James and the Giant Peach and Danny, the Champion of the World.
