Thanks for my copy received this morning. The grandchildren will love it.I had a good laugh at the illustration in the first chapter with its appropriate labels.I think I will have to read it first before I hand it over.

We listened to it on cd for a long journey, 3 hours. The GCs were so enthralled they asked us to go more slowly so that we would finish the story before they got home! mr jj and I loved it too. (but in our family it is great granny who has the mobility scooter, I hope I am nowhere near it yet!)

My DS read it to my DGD when I was staying and I peed my pants laughing. Brilliant!

Haven't actually read it myself as I had it delivered direct to grandsons from Amazon. Keep forgetting to read it when I'm there, but I know they loved it. They thoroughly enjoy all of his books for kids. It was first published in 2011. I think he knows exactly the kind of humour likely to appeal to his audience.

The books have now been sent out - so if you get one in the next day or two don't forget to let us know what you think on this thread. There's a fabulous prize for one gransnetter who posts...so if you fancy owning a SIGNED box set of David Walliams novels you know what to do! Draw will be made at random on Tuesday 2nd April
