The plot was somewhat entertaining, but there was just nothing underneath it, and I think that’s what I found the most disappointing. His books have now been translated into 40+ languages, and also include picture books illustrated by Tony Ross.

This is another mess of a book by David Walliams, there are some good ideas but as a whole it doesn’t really work.

I think this about the 18th book by Mr Walliams that I've read and it is as good as any of the others. I prefer his books that have a more tangled story such as The ice monster, The Beast of Buckingham Palace, even Code Name Bananas but maybe because I like the history element being thrown into them. One of the greatest elements of this book; as with all David Walliams’ books, is that it perfectly walks the naughty line. It had funny, cheesy jokes in that the children reading the book will understand and the storyline is fasted paced and engaging.
