Review
Praise for The World’s Worst Children:
"'I loved it because it's so funny I laughed my head off!" Ben, aged 8
"A positively gruesome book" Guardian
“This really is Walliams at his most indulgently gross and silly – the perfect combination for thousands of his loyal fans… stunningly illustrated by Ross who captures the energy and chaos of the stories” Daily Mail
“Laugh-out-loud funny and…downright disgusting” Daily Express
“Often described as the modern-day Roald Dahl, Walliams is a big author with big ideas and plenty of illustrations, all combining to make for real page-turners, even for kids who would normally look at you as if you’re mad to suggest reading for pleasure” Independent
Praise for David Walliams’ books:
“The new Roald Dahl” Evening Standard
"A triumphant mix of wit and warmth" Telegraph
“Ridiculously over-the-top and utterly delightful” Spectator
"His books are a breath of wonderful fresh air" Sun
“Delightfully funny” Metro
Book Description
A collection of ten funny illustrated stories for kids from the bestselling author of SLIME
About the Author
David Walliams continues to take the literary world by storm. His tenth novel, BAD DAD, was an immediate number one, following the triumph of THE MIDNIGHT GANG, the biggest-selling children’s book of 2016. THE WORLD’S WORST CHILDREN 2, spent four weeks at industry number one.
David’s books have now exceeded 100 non-consecutive weeks at children’s number one, and have been translated into 53 languages, selling more than 35 million copies worldwide.
Tony Ross was born in London in 1938. He went to art school in Liverpool and has since worked as a typographer for design and advertising agencies. His cartoons have appeared in Punch, Town, Time and Tide and the News of the World. His first book Hugo and the Wicked Winter was published in 1972. Tony has since written over 100 books and illustrated over 2000! Two of his creations, Towser and The Little Princess have been turned into TV series.
Tony lives in Wales.
