Gangsta Granny

Eleven year old Ben's parents are obsessed with ballroom dancing. They dump him at his granny's on Friday evenings to watch their favorite show Strictly Stars Dancing at the studio. Ben hates it. He thinks old people are not much fun. On one such visit, Ben discovers something that changes his perception of his grandmother.I love this story. It's simple and makes fun of a lot of things we are taught to fear and respect. And the grandmother grandson relationship is truly touching.David Williams also visits the subject of parental pressure. Ben wants to be a plumber. His parents think it is a dead-end job and want him to be a dancer worthy of national television instead. While the clashes are comical portrayed, they impart a strong message.A wonderful book. Now if only I can get my nephews and nieces to read it...

If you think this is a book for kids, you are wrong! It’s a book for all ages .. it’s a book on relationships :)

Ben thinks his Granny is boring, and he hates going to her house every Friday evening to spend time with her. The actul story starts one night when Ben calls his parents to come and pick him up from his Granny's house because he is getting bored as his Granny does only two things which he hates: drinks cabbage soup and play Scrabble. Granny hears his him and feels bad. She then pretends like a jewel thief and wants Ben to think she is one. Then, they go on a mission to steal the Crown Jewels. Will they be successful, or will they get caught? Read the book to find out?

Cute little story about a kid and his granny. Great for children to read and have a light moment

I really like the book. I love the granny. She is really cool. This is the best book of David Walliams. This book is very famous. The rating is very nice.Review by my 4 yr son, Yug Agrawal

Oh my god I can't believe I forgot to review this book for so long. It is SO good. It has to be the one of the best books David Williams has written. The first time I read this I got soooooo sad that (SPOILER ALERT) granny died. The author described it so well as well, (amazing description by me, I know) and what I mean by he "described it so well" is that it will probably make you sad, and I'm a practical person (or so my mother says anyway🧐) so basically buy it. (Plus my name is Rishi and I'm 10 years old)

I would highly recommend this book to parents children and all adults.Got this book for my mom.She loved it.The picture itself speaks for itself.The cute naughty granny loved her.Love love love this book a thousand times.

It came in good quality. Story is also interesting
