Book Summary

Awful Auntie (2014), illustrated by Tony Ross, unfolds in the frosty winter of 1933 at the sprawling Saxby Hall. Young Stella Saxby awakens bandaged and disoriented to the news of her parents’ fatal car crash—delivered by her sinister Aunt Alberta, who moves in immediately. Alberta, a shameless villainess obsessed with tiddlywinks, owls, and acquiring the family estate, intends to coerce Stella into signing away the deeds. But Stella isn’t alone—she befriends Soot, the mischievous ghost of a chimney sweep trapped in the house, and together they plot to thwart Aunt Alberta’s wicked schemes. Complete with slapstick humor, eccentric characters like the bumbling butler Gibbon, and Ross’s zany illustrations, the story is a hilarious, darkly comic adventure as Stella and Soot chase the owl Wagner through chimneys and corridors in a bid to save Saxby Hall.

About the Author

David Walliams is a British comedian, actor, and hugely successful children’s author. Rising to fame with the sketch show Little Britain and later as a long-time judge on Britain’s Got Talent, Walliams began writing children’s novels in 2008, securing a HarperCollins contract. He has since become one of the UK’s best-selling children’s authors, with over 50 million books sold globally, and his works translated into more than 50 languages. Awful Auntie was his seventh novel and notably his first without the recurring character Raj—setting it uniquely in the 1930s. Walliams’ writing style, often compared to Roald Dahl for its dark humor and irreverent tone, has earned both commercial success and critical acclaim, including the Children’s Book of the Year award in 2014.
