This three-book paperback collection brings together David Walliams' bestselling short story collections in one giftable set.

The first book introduces ten cautionary tales starring a rogue's gallery of gruesome children, from Sofia Sofa, who refuses to leave the sofa, to Blubbering Bertha, whose tears cause chaos wherever she goes. The World's Worst Children 2 continues the fun with a brand-new gang of horrible children behaving even more badly, while The World's Worst Children 3 delivers ten more fiendishly funny short stories fans have been eagerly awaiting. Each book is illustrated throughout in vivid full colour by Tony Ross, whose expressive artwork brings every dreadful character to life on the page. Written in Walliams' signature style, the stories combine outrageous humour with a gentle moral undertone, so children giggle their way through each tale while quietly absorbing lessons about kindness and good behaviour. The short-story format makes the books ideal for bedtime reading, classroom read-alouds, or independent reading practice, since each tale can be enjoyed in a single sitting. Together, the three books offer hours of entertainment and are a natural next step for fans of Walliams' longer novels looking for something shorter and snappier. This set is a wonderful introduction to the World's Worst Children universe for new readers, and a must-have for existing fans wanting the complete collection in one paperback bundle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThree complete books in one great-value paperback collection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVivid full-colour illustrations throughout by Tony Ross\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThirty short, funny stories perfect for reading in one sitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIdeal for bedtime stories, classroom sharing, or independent reading\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAges 7-9, great for reluctant and confident readers alike\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA brilliant gift set for any young David Walliams fan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nDavid Walliams is a British author, comedian, and actor, celebrated as one of the best-selling children's authors of the modern era.
