Gangsta Granny

Book Description

Another hilarious and moving novel from David Walliams, number one bestseller and fastest growing children’s author in the country.

1) She was once an international jewel thief.

2) All her life, she has been plotting to steal the Crown Jewels, and now she needs Ben’s help…
