    This book is very disgusting and nasty. It’s talking about how a man with no eyes uses rats to make burgers! Ewwwwwww! Apart from this I recommend it to you even though it’s very disgusting. It’s about how you can’t separate a pet from it’s owner (from my view.) So I rate this book 4 stars.

    I loved this book, because it was extremely funny, and it was a tiny bit spooky. It would give it 5 out of 5 stars.

    I thought this book was not the best David Walliams book ever. I liked it at the start but when I got actually in the story it was a bit boring.

    This has to be one of the best David walliams book ever!! It’s hilarious and sad a the same time. When reading, you really get to know one of the main characters, Zoe, and find out what its like to be her and how lucky we are to have all the things we have in life, it really sends a message to us all. Its a heart touching magical book which should leave you at the end in tears. Well done David Walliams!!!
