Gangster Granny vs Porn- David Walliams book review

After growing tired of my Mummy porn collection (which is basically a novel with a bit of bonking, a fantasy man and a half naked person on the front with their lips slightly parted), I decided to go to the other end of the book scale...children's books. 


Now, we all know David Walliams is a funny man, so branching out into children's books was always going to be a winner. 

'Gangsta Granny' tells the story of Ben, his boring Granny and a lot if cabbage. 
Stuck with Granny every Friday night, is the lowlight of his week until he comes across a tin of jewels in his Granny's kitchen. 

Ben's cabbagy Gran tells Ben she stole the jewels and was an international jewel theif. 

Thrilled that his Grandma has more to her than the stench of cabbage and a fondness of Scrabble, they plan the ultimate heist. 

What could possibly go wrong?! 

The book is thoroughly entertaining for young and old alike (even Granny's) and has a poignant message at the end. 

Hurrah to all the 'Gangsta Granny's!' If you are stuck for your next book to read, try David Walliams on for size, I guarantee you will enjoy it (and so would he! - Damn, there's the Mummy porn bit creeping in- so crude.)
