The World's Worst Children Series

by ,
(287 reviews)

Once upon a time there were fairy tales that told cautionary tale stories ... today, we have David Walliams! Get ready to laugh your socks off with these hilarious illustrated short story collections for readers 5+! 

Beware: there are some seriously AWFUL children in these books! The World's Worst Children books tell the stories of children anyone could only hope not to ever meet in a gazillion years. 

From Dribbling Drew, a lazy boy who sleeps anywhere and everywhere he can, ends up drooling so much he causes a FLOOD, to Peter Picker, who is a professional picker when it comes to his nasty boogie-infested nose. 

We've got children who love staying on the sofa so much that they become one themselves, chronic liers, big-headed little ones, and tantrum twisters. But each of these children end up having to deal with the consequences of their actions, so in between all the giggles, children reading also get a cautionary tale, so they don't turn into one of the world's worst children themselves!

Each of the stories in these collections are absolutely bonkers, so hilarious that they'll bring you to tears, and so imaginative. If you're a fan of Horrible Histories, Bad Kids or are simply generally partial to Funny Books, you will not want to miss out on this knee-slappingly funny series by David Walliams and illustrated by Tony Ross!

David Walliams is also the multi-million bestselling author behind Megamonster, The Creature Choir, Gangsta Granny and There's a Snake in My School.
