David Walliams has revolutionised reading for children and
become one of the most influential children's writers today. Since
the publication of his ground-breaking first novel, The Boy in
the Dress (2008), Walliams has seen unprecedented growth with
global sales exceeding 40 million copies, and his books translated
into 53 languages.
Born in London, Tony Ross went to art school in Liverpool. His
cartoons have appeared in famous publications the world over. His
first book, Hugo and the Wicked Winter, was published in
1972. Tony has since written over 100 books and illustrated over
2000!
David and Tony have worked on seven bestselling picture books
together, and thirteen of David's phenomenally successful
children's novels. David and Tony also collaborated on the 2017
World Book Day title, BLOB, and on the blockbuster
collections The World's Worst Children 1, 2 and 3, The
World's Worst Teachers and The World's Worst
Parents.
PRAISE FOR THE WORLD'S WORST CHILDREN:
"This really is Walliams at his most indulgently gross and silly - the perfect combination for thousands of his loyal fans... stunningly illustrated by Ross who captures the energy and chaos of the stories." - Daily Mail
"Laugh-out-loud funny and...downright disgusting" - Daily Express
"Often described as the modern-day Roald Dahl, Walliams is a big author with big ideas and plenty of illustrations, all combining to make for real page-turners, even for kids who would normally look at you as if you're mad to suggest reading for pleasure." - The Independent
