There is, of course, a happy ending (some readers may feel a happier one that Barry deserves) and while the moral of the story is somewhat transparent, the energy and enthusiasm of the story-telling compensate to a large extent. It's funny and silly, and will, at the very least, while away a wet afternoon.
If you like funny, try books by the other David – Walliams, that is. He has a wild and zany humour that appeals to young readers. Bookbag enjoyed [[Billionaire Boy by David Walliams|Billionaire Boy]], [[Ratburger by David Walliams|Ratburger]], [[Demon Dentist by David Walliams|Demon Dentist]] and especially [[The Boy in the Dress by David Walliams and Quentin Blake|The Boy in the Dress]] which is illustrated by the fabulous Quentin Blake. We've also enjoyed [[AniMalcolm by David Baddiel and Jim Field]]. For more from Badiel, try [[The Person Controller by David Baddiel|The Person Controller]].
