David's books have achieved unprecedented critical acclaim - and both RATBURGER and DEMON DENTIST won the National Book Awards Children's Book of the Year. Enter Miss Root, the demon dentist, a ghastly-looking dame of undeterminable age (though decidedly ancient), with a vampiric (white, to break the stereotype) cat, who is on a sinister mission involving lots of children's teeth and thwarted tooth-fairy gifts, which are replaced by dad slugs, live spiders, and even old men's toe nails. Fourthly (Made -up word alert) is that everything in this book is absolutely perfect , from the point where Mrs Root arrived to the tooth witch's death. Alfie and Gabz are determined to get to the bottom of the mystery - but no-one could have dreamed what they'll discover when they come face to face with the demon dentist herself, in this hilarious and thrilling story! The latest jaw-achingly funny, number-one bestselling novel from David Walliams – now out in paperback.

Alfie lives in a dilapidated bungalow with an invalid father, who fell ill when working in a coal mine, while his mother had passed on years ago. When I first started the book, I really believed that with what seems rather a substantial read, could not possibly have maintained the same momentum throughout; I really felt it would have to slow down and the humour diminish somewhat with its progress - how wrong I was! The David Williams books are exciting and engaging and never fails to impress with the brilliant content and illustrations.Having started from humble origins, Joe’s father is now a billionaire, and Joe has everything he wants, except true friends. The story is thrilling and I went into another world of imagination after I started reading maybe that's why I got scared out of my wits when I saw the illustration of the witch's eyes.
