Demon Dentist

This New York Times bestseller from David Walliams, the UK’s #1 bestselling children’s author and “the heir to Roald Dahl” (The Spectator), launched his books stateside in a big way!

Walliams makes going to the dentist a wacky adventure with his signature humor—this is one dentist appointment you don’t 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….

• A Twisted Mystery: Forget the Tooth Fairy. When kids start finding slugs and spiders under their pillows, Alfie knows something is terribly wrong with the new dentist in town, Miss Root.
• Scary But Funny: Perfect for kids who love to laugh and shriek! Expect spooky chills from the demon dentist and belly laughs from the wacky, bonkers adventure.
• An Unlikely Hero: Twelve-year-old Alfie hates the dentist more than anything. But to protect his friends and solve the town’s gruesome mystery, he’ll have to face his greatest fear.
• The Heir to Roald Dahl: Praised by The Spectator as Dahl’s successor, Walliams delivers a classic tale of a brave kid facing a terrifyingly funny grown-up villain.
