Product description

Myrtle Meek is a spoiled little so-and-so. She’s utterly impossible! Remember The World’s Worst Children? Myrtle’s even worse than those brats! She has everything a kid could possibly want. But that’s not enough. She wants MORE! When Myrtle demands a FING , Mr and Mrs Meek will do anything to keep their darling daughter happy. There’s only one problem. Errr – what is a FING? Their quest to find out leads them into spooky library vaults, and the dusty pages of the mysterious Monsterpedia. It takes them to the dark depths of the jungliest jungle, where the weirdest creatures can be found. But will they ever find a FING? And what will they do – if they do?

  • A funny sensation from comedy king David Walliams
  • An explosively witty and joyously surreal tall story
  • Stars the brattiest little girl since Dahl’s Veruca Salt
  • A must for young fans of The World’s Worst Children

    Brilliantly funny and engaging

    My 9 yr old daughter loved this book. It was read in 2 days, she was chuckling and giggling at the characters antics. She just couldn’t put it down. An absolute brilliant buy and a great author for children to read.

    Fantastic Fing

    This book was so enjoyable. I could read it over and over again and not get bored. It has such a funny ending and made me crack up. David Walliams is my favourite author.
