I thought it was a really adventurous book, and I love adventurous books because I enjoy adventures. Ratty, the rat-mouse, also plays a monumental role in teaching Robodog, and thus also the readers, life skills and healthy perceptions, such as acceptance of those different from you and the value of friendship and loyalty. All of these elements are perfect for Middle-Grade readers and entertaining for us older readers as well.

Robodog is the hilarious new action-packed comic caper from David Walliams - due for release in March 2023.

These baddies include Velma, the chief and professor's cat; mighty mind, the master mind who is just a mega-brain floating in a fish bowl and is behind the notorious robberies in the city of Bedlam; and Hammerheads, mighty mind's henchperson who lost her hands and uses a hammer on each side as a replacement for her hands.

His debut children's novel, The Boy in the Dress, was published in 2008 to unanimous critical acclaim and he has since developed a reputation as a natural successor to Roald Dahl.In 2008 David’s first children’s book The Boy in the Dress was published, illustrated by Quentin Blake. Walliams succeeds in combining his self-confessed love for the canine world with an amusing adventure story for young readers. As much as I agree this is wholesome and sweet , it doesn’t have the charm of his initial books , I’ve already noticed a shift in the writing style and the illustrator , but I wanted to complete all of his work , atleast at the time I discovered him and I’m glad it’s all off my tbr.

I thought Mighty Mind, Hammerhands, The Chocolatier, The Headmistress and The Politician were all great baddies.

The characters are flat and talk a lot but nothing happens, apart from things getting damaged and making sounds.

I love that the Professor and the Chief were married because the people in the books I have read who have been married to each other have been husband and wife, so it was fun to read about a wife and a wife.
