Very funny, especially Mrs Seethe who was arguing with HERSELF! Mr Phone was funny too when he flushed himself down the toilet - he was afraid of kids!

The World's Worst Teachers is a fiction book about horrible and very very bad teachers. I did not have a favourite character because they were all horrible and disgusting (apart from one). I would definitely recommend this to someone else as it is funny (at parts)and has some gruesome things in it like the chair of a thousand farts!

25 Aug 2023

It is a very entertaining book and I recommend it for any age!

I really like this book my favourite part is when one of doctor dread’s students sits on doctor dread’s chair of 1000 farts and farts and says “Make that 1001 farts.“

14 Aug 2023

In Mr Phobe's fear I like the bit where he got flushed down the toilet and he gets scared by children. I didn't like the bit where Doctor dead's head and Bog's head got stuck together.

This book is about the world's worst teachers in lots of different schools. The teachers were bossy, the maths teacher wouldn't let the pupils use balls because he was scared of them. The person I liked best is Chewy or Rebel. I like this book because it is very funny and I recommend reading it if you like David Walliams (author).

I think David Walliams has taken his books to the next level with The World's Worst Teachers!

10 Aug 2023

It was very funny , my absolute favourite character was Miss Conceit because she loved art so much her students fooled her into making her a piece of art! I would recommend it to someone who enjoys laughs but also a bit of everything because all of the stories/teachers are unique.
