Book Description | Walliams makes going to the dentist a wacky adventure with his signature humorthis is one dentist appointment you dont want to miss. Something strange is happening in Alfie's town. Instead of shiny coins from the Tooth Fairy, kids are waking up to dead slugs, live spiders, and other dreadfully icky things under their pillows. Who would do something so horrific? Alfie is sure that Miss Root, the creepy new dentist in town, is behind it all. There's nothing Alfie hates more than going to the dentist, but to solve this mystery, he may have to book a dreaded appointment. |
Editorial Review | “A Brit-flavored romp that combines moments of intense terror and bracing courage with biting satire.” (Kirkus Reviews). “A goofy, gory, outlandish tale of deep evil and terrible tooth-rot—and sweetness of heart. Kids who enjoy humorous gross-out horror will definitely want to book an appointment of their own with the Demon Dentist.” (Wall Street Journal) |
