About this deal

David Walliams is a literary phenomenon whose books have sold more than fifty-three million copies worldwide and have been translated into fifty-five languages. And the way in which David Walliams created new awesome stories for these monsters was interesting and thoroughly entertaining. Poorly plotted on the whole, resorting to 'don't eat yellow snow'-type humour, I am gratefully heading back to wider and more fulfilling reads with my youngest now. Readers will revel in delight at the array of frightfully fun characters, including Lord Phantom who has woken up after 500 years to discover that his home has been turned into a theme park, Amber who is convinced her parents and little brother are vampires, Buster who discovers his new pen pal might just be a werewolf and Rose who is on the trail to uncover the true story of the Loch Ness Monster,” HCCB said. The illustrations perfectly capture the stories being told and made me want to spend extra time on each page just admiring them even.
