It was very funny and I can’t believe his Mum actually came up with that ridiculous iceberg costume that turned out to save the queen from getting caught by the police trying to steal her own Crown Jewels!

As Ben's sorrow over his Grandmother's death is revealed, the news is filled with the shockingly daring thefts of priceless artifacts situated in London.The Queens Waxwork from Madam tusauds is gone, the worldcup trophy is missing, and the Death mask of Tutenkhamun is also stolen!
A nosy Neighbour of his, is absolutely sure, that he is behind these criminal offences, and has notified the police of his evident suspicion against the young child.
Ben is desperate to prove he has not commited these crimes, yet to prove his innocence, he must reveal the true thief's identity...
But how?
He is utterly perplexed to find the most unlikely figure attempting to steal the crown jewels, he himself tried to take and most definately put back, he decides to help her, put them back.
Will he be able to before the end of the night?
Or will they be found?
A must must must read!

Pretty good. I would recommend it to someone else.

I can’t believe it was called Gangsta Granny when Granny wasn’t in it! I did enjoy it so I would recommend it.

This is the second book continuing the series of Ben (an unfortunate boy, who has parents wanting him to be a ballroom dancer) with him losing a Granny who used to pretend she was called Gangsta Granny and they even tried to do something criminal. In this book, the Queen for one decides to dress up and disguise herself and manages to steal the World Cup, Tutankhamun's mask and a waxwork of herself. This humorous book by David Walliams continues to demonstrate his sense of humour and fun. I really liked the ending and thought how the Queen danced with Flavio Flavioli with a very happy ending. I recommend this book to people who like to fall out of their chair laughing.

It was just so sensational

It is a mysterious and surprising

13 Jul 2024

This was an amazing book who would have thought of the queen being a gangster. This was a fiction book and my favourite character was the because she was cool and funny and quick and stealthy. This interested me because Ben’s grandmother died and she was a gangster and she was know as the black cat,but someone was stealing things that very expensive. I would highly recommend this book for 6 to 10 year olds .
