Grown-ups have had their turn at running things, and let's face it, they've been rubbish! It's time that a kid was in charge. Where there is grumpiness, may we bring giggles, where there is jelly, may we bring ice-cream, where there are chairs, may we bring whoopee cushions!

This book is really funny because right at the end, Jenkin’s (the prime minister’s bodyguard) has a jet pack and the Queen throws a stone at a bird and it poops on someone’s head. I would recommend it to everyone 6 and over.

I would recommend this fantastic book to anyone who is interested in becoming a PM. My favourite part is when the PM has to go with the scary lions.

The beginning was really interesting and I was quite enjoying it but when I read deeper into the story it turned a bit boring.

I like this book because it’s really funny and it’s by one of my favourite authors. My favourite character is AJ because he eats Jo who is the prime minister‘s mums food and it’s always disgusting and weird but he still likes it. Also he’s always joking about with a with Jo and it’s really really funny. I’d recommend this book because it’s just really funny and it’s by my favourite author. Pop

I loved this book and the characters are really funny! I especially liked his interpretation of the queen, who had a habit of slingshoting pigeons! I would recommend this book to anyone who's bored.Tom Mclauglin is the new David Walliams!
