All went straight to Children’s number one on release with Gangsta Granny and Billionaire Boy selling over a million copies to date. The previous novel proved to be extremely hilarious and was followed by another stunning and hilarious novel written by author David Walliams, titled as ‘Gangsta Granny’. This novel was published by the Children’s Books section of the Harper Collins publishers in the year 2011.

Once again the pairing of David Walliams and Tony Ross created magic. Tony Ross' amazing illustrations completely enhance this wonderful book and perfectly capture the heart and soul of David Walliams' story. As an adult, I didn't particularly enjoy this, but listening as someone who needs to be aware of children's tastes and trends, I can't see this making waves as Walliams' comic efforts have done. While Alfie of course becomes a braver hero than he starts out as, it's a genre (or mix of) that is better suited to the adolescent who can deal with the more mature themes more comfortably. There is a lot here that will puzzle and put off. David Walliams has revolutionised reading for children and become one of the most influential children’s writers today.

Reviews

David Walliams is a popular author from England, who is famous for writing his works based on the Children’s Books and humor genres. Apart from being a noteworthy author, David is also popular as an actor, comedian, activist, and television personality. Eat, Drink, and Be Merry: The Ultimate Guide to Celebrating Christmas with the Best Drinks Books On The Shelves This show was the one that set up the television career of author David and made him popular. He made his writing debut with the children’s novel titled ‘The Boy in the Dress’. This book opened to the extreme popularity and acclaim after its publication in the year 2008. Hello Yellow - 80 Books to Help Children Nurture Good Mental Health and Support With Anxiety and Wellbeing - In fact, before seeing the “DO NOT TAP ON THE GLASS” sign, Bob had not thought of doing such a thing. It hadn’t even crossed his mind. Now he had an overwhelming desire to do it. Bob was curious. What would happen if he tapped on the glass? Would it shatter? Would the zoo self-destruct? Would the world end? There was only one way to find out.

With all these things happening in his life, he has become the wealthiest 12 year old boy in the whole city. However, Joe does not seem to be happy rather. The reason is that even though he has billions of pounds, he does not have even a single friend with whom he can play. David Walliams and Tony Ross assert the moral right to be identified as the author and illustrator of this work.Bob loved his grandpa, but life could be hard because they had no money. All Bob’s clothes were a size too small, and his shoes were falling apart. The zoo was full of animals with funny faces just like Bob’s, so he always felt at home there. His grandpa had long been retired, and barely had enough money to put food on the table, so the pair could only afford to visit the zoo once a year. But my nearly 9-year-old listened along with me and his assessment was roughly similar to mine upon finishing. He just didn't enjoy it all that much. He found it dark and depressing (though there is nothing wrong with this is general), and I'm not sure he followed it completely, whereas usually he is a very close listener.

Winston is the kindly old zookeeper at the local zoo. He has worked there all his life and thinks of the animals as his friends. They think of him as their friend too as he feeds them, cleans them, and even clears up their droppings. Yes, there’s nothing more delightful than showering in freezing-cold water that smells of elephant,” said the other.The boy’s favourite place was the local zoo. Grandpa would take his beloved grandson there every year as a special treat on Bob’s birthday. Together they would marvel at all the animals, and Grandpa would make up funny stories about how they got to look the way they did. Well, this is my first David Walliams book and as I am aged 44, I suspect I am not really his target demographic. I actually think David Walliams is better than Roald Dahl. I know, I know. Roald Dahl is amazing, legend, one of a kind but David's books are genuinely good, kind, honest and most importantly wise. I will be always grateful for that. Since then, author David has developed a reputation for himself as a successor of Roald Dahl. Since the year 2012, author David has been working as a judge on the talent show called Britain’s Got Talent on ITV. Other than that, he has also written a played an important role in a couple of seasons of the BBC One show called Big School. All in all, this was such great fun and I'm very much looking forward to reading more of David Walliams' books.
