Book review: The World’s Worst Children 2 by David Wailliams

Book review of The World's Worst Children by a kid book blogger

This week’s review is brought to you by my little brother Book Boy Jr (10).

Title: The World’s Worst Children 2

Author: David Walliams

Publisher: HarperCollins Children’s Books

About the book: This book contains a variety of stories about children with traits such as mischief, hatred and other horrible things. Each story is different in its own way, but they’re all funny.

What I thought: I thought the book was interesting because there are so many different stories in there. My favourite was ‘Humbert The Hungry Baby’, which is about a baby who eats too much and sneaks into the fridge.

I really like David Walliams as an author because he’s funny and he has lots of expression and details in his characters. I think The World’s Worst Children (1) would also be good, but I haven’t read it yet.

The stories are all short – about 15-20 pages each – so they’re good to read before you go to sleep at night. There are also lots of colour pictures in the book, which I liked.

I would recommend this book for kids aged 8-11.

Book Boy

I’m a 15-year-old Aussie boy who loves to read. My favourite books include ‘Jasper Jones’, ‘To Kill A Mockingbird’ and ‘The Lord Of The Rings’.

My website contains reviews of books from junior fiction to YA novels and, now, adult reads as well. I only review books I like. My brother writes younger reviews for Book Boy as Book Boy Jr.

My book reviews have appeared in The Sunday Telegraph, and on sites such as Children’s Books Daily, Creative Kids Tales and Inside A Dog.
