Storytime is the perfect opportunity for family time. Whether this is a bedtime story or something you resort to at 6am to keep the kids entertained while you’re thinking about making breakfast, depends entirely on your family. There’s no right answer on when you should read to your kids, but there is the right author to choose.

We absolutely love David Walliams books! We think that these hilarious, out-of-the-box adventure stories will keep your little ones gripped to the drama, as well as being a fantastic present for older children to enjoy on their own.

With more time to spend in the garden now that the weather is heating up, we think you should spend the bank holiday hosting storytime for your kids on the lawn. Not sure what Walliams tale to choose? We’ve found the best David Walliams books so you can spend more time enjoying the sunshine with your children instead of researching things to do on the internet.

All that’s left to do now is transport the whole family into the wonderful, crazy worlds that David Walliams books open up.
