I am eight years old and I really liked this book because it is funny and not like anything I have ever read before. The characters are brilliant. I like Lisa, Darvesh's mum and best of all, Dennis. I think that a boy dressing up as a french girl is a very funny idea. I would like to buy this book for all my friends at Christmas, boys and girls.

I read this book before I gave it to my grandchildren aged 8 and 10 years. I enjoyed David Walliam's writting style very much. I was impressed with his ability to cover the issue of 'difference' in such a funny and entertaining way.

I have to say that I throughly enjoyed this book. Walliams has come up with something different and challenging for young readers and i think it is very important to applaud this. It is not often that you come across a big name children's book that deals with issues outside of normative girl/ boy roles. I found myself involved in and moved by this book and my cousin (who I read the book with) certainly agrees with me! If you're looking for the kind of book that sends out positive messages about diversity and acceptance without it coming off as a lesson or a lecture, then this really is a kids book worth taking a look at.
