Book: Demon Dentist
Author: David Walliams
I love all of David Walliams books but I am going to post a review about this specific book because it was the first book I read by David Walliams.
First of all, when you look at the cover it tells you exactly what it is about. An evil dentist with an evil cat, trying to drill out the boy's teeth.
I love how it is such a big book so if you’re enjoying the book, it takes quite a while to finish. So, you can read more of it. Alright, Let’s get on with the storyline.
I like the storyline because it is so creative! In my opinion, all the storylines David Walliams comes up with are so creative and funny!
He also makes a lot of made-up words. Which I think is pretty cool! He shows all the characters in the book before you read the actual book so you know who is who.
Let’s get on with the actual book!
The story is about a boy called Alfie and he hated going to the dentist because of an incident that happened. He's been avoiding the dentist for ages. The last time he went to the dentist (When the incident happened) he was six years old.
When 12 year old Alfie went to assembly, the new dentist came to promote her dental clinic. Alfie and his friend Gabz got suspicious of her. At the end of the assembly, the dentist gave out sugar-free sweets and everyone came to get them. Except for Alfie and Gabz. Not long after that, Alfie was forced to go to the dentist and something terrible happened... After that, Gabz came to confront the dentist. Alfie soon realised that Gabz had been gone for a while so Alfie decided to face his fears and go to the dentist to find out the truth. Read the book to find out how the story ends.
Rating out of 10: 10/10
Would I recommend the book? Definitely!
I really enjoyed this book and if you get it out at the library or buy it, I hope you enjoy it too!
