The Boy in the Dress by David Walliams
The hilarious and heart-warming first novel for children from the number one bestselling author of DEMON DENTIST and AWFUL AUNTIE. This is a book about a boy named Dennis. He lives in a boring house in a boring street in a boring town, and he doesn't have much to look forward to. But what he does have is dreams - and once he starts to follow them, things will never be the same again. You'll laugh, you'll cry, and once you meet Dennis, he'll live with you forever. Since first publication in 2008, The Boy in the Dress has been translated into 25 languages and has sold over 600,000 copies in the UK alone.'[Walliams' books] are brilliantly, beautifully and seemingly effortlessly written..

David Walliams - comedian, actor and author - continues to take the children's literary world by storm. His tenth novel, BAD DAD, was an immediate number one, following the triumph of THE MIDNIGHT GANG, the biggest-selling children's book of 2016. WORLD'S WORST CHILDREN 2, which published in early 2017, spent four weeks at industry number one and eight weeks at the top of the children's chart. They have achieved unprecedented critical acclaim - and RATBURGER, DEMON DENTIST and AWFUL AUNTIE have all won the National Book Awards Children's Book of the Year.
David's books have now exceeded 100 non-consecutive weeks in the children's number-one spot, and have been translated into 53 languages, selling more than 26 million copies worldwide.
