About this deal

Young Prince Alfred has never left his home in Buckingham Palace, but when his beloved mother, the Queen, is dragged off to the Tower of London, Alfred sets off on an epic adventure to rescue her. Remind yourselves of Prince Alfred, his new friend Mite, the King and Queen and all the hilarious characters from David’s epic adventure now!

I was brought up reading Roald Dahl books and the whole look of this book (including the illustrations) was probably deliberately done to mimic those works. Some dark parts which will make some people cry and some very humorous parts that will make people laugh out loud.

Back to this, maybe if I was 8 or 9 I would like it more, but I am a reader who likes to read a book, this is more like half children book and half comic. These cookies allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of our site. I can easily say that David Walliams is one of my favourite Middle Grade Author's, and his partnership with Tony Ross is a match made in heaven. Set in a future London, the city is literally falling apart with the King unable to lead and his son, Prince Alfred too sickly to do much, including leaving Buckingham Palace. I’m sure many children will love this book but I just felt there were the foundations of so much more there.We use cookies to personalise content and ads, to provide social media features and to analyse our traffic. All with the sinister machinations of a 'power behind the throne' character running the show - and some twists that children will be shocked at and possibly upset by. Zver iz Bakingemske palate je jedna divna priča o sazrevanju, o spoznaji da nepravda ne čeka da sama bude ispravljena već zahteva da damo svoj doprinos borbom, istrajnošću i upornošću. I read the book as I had read odd chapters at bedtime with my daughter but couldn’t quite get the story so told her that I would read it when she had finished it.

Vlast u Britaniji je srušena, narod živi na ivici egzistencije i gladuje, a kraljevska porodica sa svojim zaštitnicima ne napušta Bakingemsku palatu. Alfred je pravo oličenje nesebičnosti, plemenitosti i borbenosti i bilo mi je veliko zadovoljstvo i uživanje da budem deo njegovih avantura.With the world at stake, this epic story will keep readers on the edge of their seats until the final page. But my nearly 9-year-old listened along with me and his assessment was roughly similar to mine upon finishing. Things go from bad to worse when his mother, the Queen, is accused of being a traitor by the King's closest advisor, and dragged away to the Tower of London.
