Publisher Description

The number-one bestselling, much-loved and most critically acclaimed book from multi-million bestselling author David Walliams, gloriously illustrated by Tony Ross.

A story of humour and heart, funny lists and silly words, Gangsta Granny is a modern classic and the first number-one bestseller from the award-winning and multi-million-selling David Walliams.

Our hero Ben is bored beyond belief after he is made to stay at his grandma s house. She’s the boringest grandma ever: all she wants to do is to play Scrabble, and eat cabbage soup. But there are two things Ben doesn’t know about his grandma:

1) She was once an international jewel thief.

2) All her life, she has been plotting to steal the Crown Jewels, and now she needs Ben’s help…

Join David Walliams on this deeply moving and hilarious adventure, which has been enjoyed by young and old for over a decade.

This book is such a good book. Has that perfect sense of laughter, suspense and relief packed in one book. Not gonna ruin it, but the ending’s still a bit heartbreaking.
