From David Baddiel, the brightest new star of children’s books and winner of the LOLLIES award, comes a laugh-out-loud adventure for every child who ever wondered what it might be like to be a bit of an animal…
Malcolm doesn’t like animals. Which is a problem because his family love them. Their house is full of pets. What the house is NOT full of is stuff Malcolm likes. Such as the laptop he wanted for his birthday. The only bright spot on the horizon is the Year Six school trip, which Malcolm never thought his parents would pay for. And yet there he is, on the bus, heading to… oh no. A farm. Over the next days, Malcolm changes. He learns a lot about animals. More, in many ways, than he would like. He learns what it’s really like to be an animal. A whole series of animals, in fact… It does make him think differently. And speak differently. And eat differently. And, um, smell differently. But will he end up the same as before? Because sometimes the hardest thing to become is… yourself.Reviews
This book was fiction and I really liked the character, Zsa Zsa. I would recommend this book to my friends who love funny but entertaining books.

AniMalcolm is a fiction book and it is about a boy called Malcolm who doesn't like animals. He wants to go on the Year 6 trip but when he finds out where it is he doesn't want to go. His parents booked him on the trip. When he gets there he learns what is really like to be an animal. A whole series of animals in fact... K-Pax the goat cursed him into different animals. It makes him eat differently , smell differently ,think differently. Will he return into a human again? My favourite character is Malcolm.

I enjoyed reading this book cause as I read it felt like I was actually in the book. My favourite character/animal was Malcolm when he was an ape. I would recommend this to a 7 year old.
