It was fiction I think. It was sad as the granny dies. Ben finds out his nan is a thief. They try and rob the queen’s crown. They got caught. It was a bit funny in places. They watched strictly come dancing. I would recommend but it’s sad.

This is the best book I have read. Ben is always sent off to his granny's house on Friday night and his Granny always gives him cabbage. Cabbage pie, cabbage soup, you name it. But when Ben secretly tells his parents how boring she is, granny secretly overhears! The next day, Ben heads over to the local newsagent's shop. He tells the newsagent everything. But he tells him, she has a secret. Later Ben's granny is diagnosed with cancer and dies but before she did, she tells him that she overheard him talking about her and then told him that she isn't an international jewel thif

I definitely recommend this sad but joyful book to other people

I loved listening to this audiobook with my Mum and brother on our car journeys. I liked it when the boy found out his Granny was a robber. There were lots of funny bits. We are going to look for another audiobook from David Walliams for our next car journey.

It was very interesting and it's fiction.
It was sad that the granny had cancer. The main character was really interesting and at the end he really loved his granny.

The worst part is at the end because it's very sad.

I thought this was a good book - it was funny, emotional and exciting all in one! The main character was bored of going to stay at his granny's house until he discovers that she has a whole other life....

This book is very funny. I like David Walliams as an author. There was a big twist in the book that the granny was a jewellery their. Definitely recommend it.

I liked this book because it was funny, especially because Granny easts cabbage soup and it makes her fart loads, and whenever she walks her bum squeaks! I can't choose a favourite person in this book, but would recommend it to anyone else to read.

I think this is a good book, I like that granny and ben had adventures together and the granny is funny. My favourite character was granny because she was a bit silly and liked adventures.

Well it’was very good and I would love to recommend it to somebody because it was funny. The funniest part was when they met the queen and they had to pretend they weren’t stealing! Gangsta Granny was the funniest character.

I really enjoyed Gangster Granny because it tells a really good story. I like how she is just a normal granny with such an interesting past. Yes, I would recommend it, especially to children age 6+.

Fantastic

This has an interesting plot!

I thought the book was very interesting because at the start the boy was so interested in plumbing but when he found out his granny was a thief he wanted to come to his granny every day. One of my favourite part is when the boy jumped out of the window and fell on the soft grass. my favourite part was when she did naked yoga so she could not be caught being suspicious. If it was fiction my favourite character would be the granny because she is the funniest. If it was factual my interest would be to never ever steal or you will get caught like they got caught by the Queen. I would recommend it to my friends.

Ben’s granny is the coolers. She might be a granny but she’s very sneaky and loves lettuce soup.
