The funniest books around
David WALLIAMS has become one of the most popular children's authors of all time, and this puzzle gathers his world. You'll be finding the famous titles — GANGSTA GRANNY, DEMON DENTIST, Mr STINK, the MIDNIGHT GANG, SPACEBOY and Awful AUNTIE — all packed with COMEDY.
Because every new puzzle reshuffles the shelf, no two David Walliams word searches are the same. One round a backwards RATBURGER hides in a corner; the next a diagonal SPACEBOY appears across the middle.
Naughty, funny and a bit gross
Walliams' books are loved for being FUNNY, NAUGHTY and just the right amount of gross, and the flavour is here. There's the RATBURGER, the SLIME, the MEGA MONSTER and the BEAST, plus a daring ESCAPE or two. He even wrote 'The WORST CHILDREN in the world' — and millions of kids can't get enough of the AWFUL, hilarious fun.
It's a great fit for a reading topic, especially for reluctant readers. Tracking down R-A-T-B-U-R-G-E-R turns spelling practice into a giggle.
How to play
Drag across a word, or click its first and last letter — both work. Each word you spot locks in with its own colour and ticks off the list, so you always know what's left to find.
