She seems to be based on Miss Trunchbull, even in the drawings, and does get some juicy moments.Aunt Polly would certainly be proud of how civilized these rascals have become! There’s no WAY these boys are chewing tobacco now! This is the first book I’ve read written by David Williams. The characters are bizarre and yet dark humour is found all over. This is an admirable story were all the characters has their own importance. This may be a huge hit with the under-ten set, but I was massively disappointed. I do feel terribly sorry for the author, who clearly suffers from Trying-Too-Hard-To-Be-Like-Roald-Dahl Syndrome. (It's a real thing; I didn't just make that up. Did you catch last year's telethon? The Oompa Loompas did a smashing acapella version of Don't Worry Be Happy.) But perhaps my favourite cringe-worthy cover I’ve seen is this one of the beguiling orphan Anne of Green Gables: best answer.

Compared with Mauds internal musings as she rescued Helen from the Mukona, I had the following thoughts: Part A Directions: In Part A you will hear short conversations between two people. After each conversation, Even though generally David Walliams books are hit and miss, I just keep reading them, hoping to find another one that is good. Did I like this one?

The plot is quite twisty, the setting fun, the three or four characters entertaining. I have to concede that whilst Walliams's fame is undoubtedly an asset he writes a fine children's book and could very likely have got on the shelves without help.
