The fourth in a smash hit series of hilarious tales about primary school life from best-selling, award-winning creators! Packed with excellent black and white illustrations, this is the perfect longer read for newly confident readers.

Winner of the Islington Primary Schools Book Award 2017

Nothing is quite as it seems for Izzy and her friends, and the drama is always off the scale!

Izzy and her friends hate school dinners. And they hate the shepherd’s pie in particular. And now something strange seems to be happening to the dinner ladies. They’re wearing new hats, they’re cooking new food (still horrible) and there are lots and lots of new rules.

But it’s when Maisie is taken away by seagulls that they KNOW! The dinner ladies have been taken over and they are about to ATTACK!

Have you read these brilliantly funny Izzy and friends adventures?

Praise for Izzy and friends:

""Butchart has enviable comic timing and a shrewd understanding of how primary-aged children think, speak and speculate. Punchy short chapters, genuinely laugh-out-loud humour and Flintham’s zany pictures make the series an absolute must."" – The Bookseller

""Good jokes and lots of fun, and especially good for reluctant readers."" – Sunday Times

It is an interesting book with demons and pigeon pie. Maisie because she was brave in the book because she usually faints and stuff like that but she was very brave. Yes I would from 7-13

This book was awesome because it was so hard to put down and stop reading because it was so interesting my favourite part was the protesting where all the children thought that the new pue was made out of seagulls because they appeared when the new dinner ladies came it was funny because 4 children thought the new dinner lady was a demon and I would recommend this book to people who like funny and crazy stories.

My favourite characters in this book are Izzy and Zach and my second favourite are Maisie and Jodi. People I don't like are Amy and Gary Petrie. Also I think that this book is kind of a funny mystery, but the demon thing is absolutely hilarious. I would recommend but read this books in order, starting with Baby Aliens Got My Teacher!

My favourite pat was the end part, it was so good!

I thought the attack of demon dinner ladies was really funny because there were so many things to think about, such as the 'Demon Dinner Lady Army' possessing the girl, Amy and getting it all wrong!

This book was interesting with all the facts Izzy came up with about the dinner ladies and that made me wonder if the dinner ladies at my school were normal until I read the ending of the book.
