Publisher's summary

The hotly-anticipated next novel from NUMBER ONE bestselling author, David Walliams, with audio hilariously read by the author himself!

Jack’s Grandpa…

*wears his slippers to the supermarket

*serves up Spam à la Custard for dinner

*and often doesn’t remember Jack’s name

But he can still take to the skies in a speeding Spitfire and save the day…

An exquisite portrait of the bond between a small boy and his beloved Grandpa – this book takes readers on an incredible journey with Spitfires over London and Great Escapes through the city in a high octane adventure full of comedy and heart.

David Walliams has made something beautiful.

I listened to this audio book with my eight year old son. Such a lovely story and a good way to learn a little about World War Two.

Enjoyed it

My 10 year old son & I listened to this together. It's charming. Very long & a bit slow at times. Worth listening through until the end.

Fantastic Book

We all loved this book within minutes of starting it. Originally from the UK, and my kids leaving England when they were small. I have always missed the great books and stories on the BBC. This book is well worth purchasing. I personally think, the best book I have played for a long long time.

Wonderful adventure, touching, funny, unafraid.

Must-read. Loved it. Laughed, cried, very satisfied with the ending. A fate better than death.
