Little Britain’, which he co-created with Matt Lucas, started on Radio 4 and soon progressed to BBC1. The show has won numerous international awards including three BAFTAs, and now plays in over 100 countries. ‘Little Britain Live’ performed to a million people in the UK, Ireland and Australia. David and Matt followed ‘Little Britain’ with the hugely popular spoof airport documentary series 'Come Fly With Me'. This book has the cleverest literary ending of perhaps any book I've ever read. It hasn't got anything to do with the story either. In all Walliams other books and films there is a corner shop owner, Raj, who supplies the schoolchildren with sweets and sympathy although his business methods are somewhat dubious and definitely not hygenic. In the last chapter he complains that he isn't in the book. Quite audaciously he goes on that his legion of fans will not stand for this. Through the extremely funny and brilliant writing, he becomes not just a figure from Walliams' other books, but a real person who has written the afterword. 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.

One of the best books I've read it has a hooking story line and one of the best selling kids books. I read it in 3 day new record. Before reading the book, look at the characters shown at the beginning. What might each character be like? How might they be involved in the story? I have heard a lot of praise for David Walliams novels and therefore chose to read his latest work, Ratburger, as a ‘funny book’ to review. Watch this video showing the launch of the book. Could you plan a big event to ‘launch’ one of your own stories? Armistice Day: A Collection of Remembrance - Spark Interest and Educate Children about Historical MomentsChapter 12 begins with the question, ‘What is the worst thing that could ever happen to you at school?’ Can you make a list of possible answers? Could you use one of these as the starting point for a story? This is heavily influenced by Dahl, which is no bad thing. As a child I would have adored this and as an adult it kept me smiling throughout.

After the climactic scene, the book reversed and dragged on and on into an anticlimax. A chore to read. The writing and plot were so dull, this book has earned a space on my chewing gum for the brain shelf.Taking Armitage with them, Zoe and her father escape in Burt's van. Her father subsequently converts the vehicle into an ice cream van and launches his own company, Armitage's Ices, so that he can pursue his dream of making and selling ice cream with new flavours that he has invented. These prove popular with the local schoolchildren and the business is a success. Meanwhile, Zoe has discovered that Tina is being bullied by her father. Tina apologises to Zoe for bullying her in return, and the two become friends. The next day, Zoe's suspension is lifted and she and Armitage perform at the school talent show with Tina.

The references to Lady Gaga, Piers Morgan and a ‘Britain’s Got Talent’ obsession with finding fame make this classic tale of good triumphing over bad and the underdog winning in the end, both modern and relevant. It is written in an engaging, humorous way that will have children gripped from start to finish. In Chapter 10, there is a chart showing the height of different people / creatures. Can you carry out a survey to find the height of children in your class and use these to create charts and graphs? 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. However, this wouldn't be a David Walliams book without a bit of trepidation, an unfortunate incident and a dastardly villain and our poor heroine happens to come across a very nasty individual who has grand plans for Armitage. Zoe then ends up in a very precarious situation where she must rescue her pet rat from a dangerous and hugely gruesome ending at the hands of a very odd man who makes very "special" burgers for a living.

At the end of Chapter One, the author asks the reader lots of questions about who murdered the hamster. Can you write about who did this… before reading on to find out the answer? I imagine this book will be perfect for helping to foster a love of reading in 9 years olds and in fact Year 4, 5 and 6 children. I am sure that reluctant readers will find themselves engrossed in this story and for teachers, it makes a great platform for discussions on characters, settings, plots and predictions. I can imagine developing some interesting creative writing lessons around writing the story from the perspective of one of the other characters, or even a diary extract for Zoe or a different end to the tale. It could inspire children to write about their own dreams and ambitions as well prompt creativity with a task on writing a menu or drawing a poster for Armitage’s Ices. The subject of bullying in the book could make a great resource for this PSHE topic and I am sure an additional benefit of the novel is getting children to think about where their food, and especially fast food comes from and more importantly what’s in it!
