Slime: A funny illustrated children’s book from No. 1 bestselling author David Walliams. Paperback – 2 April 2020

Title: SlimeAuthor: David WalliamsIllustrator: Tony RossGenre: Humorous fictionNed is just an ordinary boy who lives in a small house near the sea. He uses a wheelchair, learnt tricks on his wheelchair and normally shouts,” I’ve got the zoomies!” Ned has a brilliant taste for adventure but sadly has been bullied all his life by his older sister, Jemima. But then he creates an extraordinary friend.Slime is a friend that Ned accidentally creates, and he becomes Ned’s best friend. He is a yellow blob that can translime into anything Ned asks him to. Slime loves to create mischief with Ned, so they are the best of friends.Ned and his family live in a tiny home right next to a cliff. It is on the Isle of Mulch, a small island in between the islands Twaddle and Stench. It is jampacked with nasty adults like Madame Solenzo Sloth (the laziest piano teacher ever) and Glen and Glenda Glutton (horrible ice-cream sellers). Ned’s aunt, Aunt Greta Greed, owns the island, has 101 cats and loathes children. The only fish available to eat are the disgusting shoe fish-which Ned’s father fishes. The Isle of Mulch has been treated unfairly by adults for years-now it is time for Ned, Slime, and the rest of the children to get their revenge…This book is really funny so I would give 5/5 stars for it. I would recommend this book for 6-16-year-olds because it is a great book. My favorite part of the book is definitely when Ned and Slime give revenge to the adults! It is also good because there is almost a little star on every page explaining all the funny made-up-words David Walliams creates like slime-o-cycle and sloctopus! I recommend this awesome book to you!Written by my son, Harry, who is 10 years old.

Really well written book just like all his others!

Slim is always fun

Nice

My child wanted some David Walliams books to read, so she decided on this one! We are looking forward to reading the book!

Great book my granddaughter loved it

Initially I had bought a few of the David Walliams books for my son as was recommended in the school read list. The David Williams books are exciting and engaging and never fails to impress with the brilliant content and illustrations. Subsequently, have bought most of the DW books for the kids and see them reading the books repeatedly, which has been a good diversion from being hooked onto gadgets. The books are certainly a good deal when bought at Amazon, good Vali for money and prompt delivery.

David Walliams has been a firm favourite with my boys since his first books came out. He occasionally uses incorrect vocabulary and grammar which is irritating, but he has told interesting, amusing stories which often have something to think about. This book, however, is not funny, not different from many other short stories he has written recently, doesn't have a plot and ends abruptly and unsatisfactorily. In fact my son said "oh, is that it?" at the end. There is no comparison with "Mr Stink", "Ratburger" and others from his earlier writing career. They had real storylines and were interesting because they looked at people from a different point of view. The only thing to recommend this book is that the "hero" is a child who needs a wheelchair to get about, which is not very usual.

Great story, throughly enjoyable!
