Megamonster, from Children’s author David Walliams.

On a volcanic island, in the middle of shark-infested waters, stands The Cruel School. The lessons are appalling, the school dinners are revolting and the teachers are terrifying – especially the mysterious Science teacher Doctor Doktur. When Larker is sent to the school, she quickly realises something very odd is going on… something involving Doctor Doktur, a pair of strange spectacles, and a ‘Monsterfication Machine’. And ultimately she finds herself face to face with a real life Megamonster. There seems to be no escape – but for Larker, nothing is impossible…

I liked Doktur Doktur the most because she is evil and turns all the other teachers into robots. But I rate it 4 stars because it isn’t very good.

On a volcanic island in the middle of shark-infested waters is the Cruel School the lessons are ludicrous,the dinner are disgusting and the teachers are terrifying. When a girl called Larker is sent there she realise that odd things are happening... I would recommend this book to children aged 7-9

It’s strange how you only meet Mega Monster at the end of the story. I like the bogeyman’s head on the slug monster because it has antennae and it’s cute. It’s funny how worms is called worms because he always carries worms in his pocket. I like how worms is illustrated.

I have enjoyed reading it so much but it was a bit sad that her friends didn’t turn back to normal after they’d defeated the evil witch/ scientist.
