Megamonster: the mega laugh-out-loud children’s book by multi-million bestselling author David Walliams

Product Information

Added to all this, David’s books have achieved unprecedented critical acclaim: Awful Auntie, Ratburger and Demon Dentist won the National Book Awards Children’s Book of the Year and in France David was awarded the popular Tamtam for Mr Stink and the prestigious Le Prix Du Livre De La Jeunesse for Ratburger, so it comes as no surprise that countless broadsheet reviewers have compared David to his all-time hero, Roald Dahl. This follows on from the success of Grandpa’s Great Escape, Awful Auntie, Demon Dentist, Ratburger and Gangsta Granny. All went straight to Children’s number one on release with Gangsta Granny and Billionaire Boy selling over a million copies to date.

David has proved himself as a dramatic actor in BBC2's 'Capturing Mary' with Dame Maggie Smith, in BBC1's Agatha Christie series 'Partners In Crime', as Frankie Howerd in the biopic ‘Rather You Than Me’ for BBC4, and on the stage in Harold Pinter’s 'No Man’s Land' starring alongside Sir Michael Gambon. He received the Comedy Award at the Evening Standard Theatre Awards for his performance as Bottom in ‘A Midsummer Night’s Dream’ directed by Michael Grandage.

Mr Stink, Gangsta Granny, The Boy in the Dress and Billionaire Boy have all been adapted into TV comedy dramas. David’s books have also been made into theatre productions including Mr Stink, Gangsta Granny, Ratburger and The First Hippo on the Moon.

Me and Minnie both read this dipping in every now and again. It was a slow burner and we spent a lot of time musing why it was called mega monster when we didn’t meet any monsters till three quarters through I certainly loved reading it, it reminded me of the books I read growing up (I used to love reading Roald Dahl). This book certainly adds some excitement to reading and might engage even the most reluctant of reluctant readers. What's wrong with it? There wasn't anything original here, now for the kids who are new to this kinda adventures, I suspect they'll have a blast, sadly I found this the weakest of his books, would I chance another tale from this funny, charming comedian?
