Summary

From the world’s favourite author, David Walliams – ten cautionary tales and a delightfully dreadful cast of characters!

Are you ready to meet the World’s Worst Children? Five beastly boys and five gruesome girls!

  • Like Sofia Sofa – a TV super-fan so stuck to the sofa that she’s turning into one!
  • Or Dribbling Drew – a boy whose drool gets him into trouble on a school trip!
  • And not forgetting Blubbering Bertha – a girl who bawls and tells terrible tales!

Also featuring a special appearance from fan-favourite Raj!

From Number One bestselling author David Walliams comes this collection of wickedly funny, deliciously mischievous tales.

🫤🫤💝Merry Christmas Very good. 🎄

I really liked the voice acting but at the start of each chapter the music played and it got sort of... boring? Anyway Merry Christmas And A Happy New Year 🎊.

Really good 👍

I really love this book. Some a bit gory and not suitable for some children in my opinion but altogether amazing, brilliantly preformed and loads more. My favs are probably Charlie Chucker, Sofia Sofa and Bubbling Bertha. I love it in Charlie Chucker when Gemma gets her revenge! Her laugh is so evil!
