Average rating
The first in the hilarious series from Roald Dahl Funny Prize winning author Philip Ardagh and illustrator of The Gruffalo, Axel Scheffler. Mr and Mrs Grunt, who are neither clean nor clever, live with their adopted in fact, abducted son, Sunny, in a donkey-drawn caravan somewhere or other at some time that is a bit like now but not exactly now. Sunny is an odd-looking boy, what with his left ear being higher than his right ear and that kind of sticky-up hair which NEVER goes flat, even if you massage glue into it and then jump on it. Together the unusual family find themselves in frankly improbable but very funny adventures involving bendy railings, double-barrelled shotguns, full-fat yoghurt and, always, a beard of bees.

I give this book 3 because it is good but I probably wouldn't recommend it as it didn't keep me that interested compared to other books. Not my cup of tea.

I thought the book was interesting and not very appropriate. The person i liked best was a boy named Sunny. The good and interesting bits of the book were: 1. Sunny met different people 2. He got snached from a washing line by a couple. 3. He didn't actually find his actual parents but found out that it might be his actual parents. yes because in the moral of the book is to make good friends.

I found it very funny and I liked how the Grunts always had disgusting things for dinner.

Larry is a bit strange, though I like the other characters. My favourite character is Sunny Grunt. I would recommend it to someone else and I might try some of the other grunts series.

It did not interest me because it was a weird story. But I would still recommend it to my friend Thomas.

It was the second funniest book I had read(Tom Gates is the first funniest I had read before). In the middle of the story, my heart was beating, I thought that the boy had found his dad, but I was absolutely wrong.
