"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"
