1st edition

Over to You: Ten Stories of Flyers and Flying is a collection of short stories by Roald Dahl. It was published in 1946 by Reynal & Hitchcock.[1]


Unlike Dahl's more famous later work, the stories in this early collection are not for children, in fact often containing particularly adult themes, nor do they have surprise endings. They are more reflective, slow-moving and at times more experimental than his later works.

Over to You contains the following stories:

  • An African Story
  • Only This
  • Katina
  • Beware of the Dog
  • They Shall Not Grow Old
  • Someone Like You
  • Death of an Old Old Man
  • Madame Rosette
  • A Piece of Cake
  • Yesterday Was Beautiful
