M&S launch adorable Roald Dahl and Natural History Museum kidswear range

Everyone has a favourite Roald Dahl book.

Generations of us have enjoyed reading James and the Giant Peach, Fantastic Mr Fox, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Matilda, The BFG and so many more - and they never go out of fashion.

And now Marks and Spencer have collaborated with Roald Dahl and the Natural History Museum to create a 24-piece collection, depicting some of the best-loved animal characters from Roald Dahl’s timeless tales, alongside fun facts about the natural world thanks to scientists from the Natural History Museum.

The 'Discover Extraordinary Explorers' collection brings together much-loved children's author Roald Dahl and the Natural History Museum in one fun-filled collaboration, with designs featuring Fantastic Mr Fox, the Enormous Crocodile and more fun characters from Dahl's famous books.

The new range, which is on sale in stores and online at marksandspencer.com now, features pyjamas, t-shirts, leggings, dresses, jumpers and joggers for both boys and girls aged 1-7 years. Items are priced from £7 to £13.

Every unique piece also features a special label which doubles up as a playing card – so with every item you purchase you can work towards collecting the set, reports the Mirror Online.

The range will also be sold for the first time in The Natural History Museum.
