4.0

David Walliams wird als der neue Arne Dahl gehandelt und tatsächlich haben die erzählten Geschichte ganz ähnliche Vibes.

Dieses Buch hier ist eine kurzweilige Oma-Enkel-Geschichte, in der auch die Queen und ein ganz verwegener Plan auftauchen. Die Handlung ist sehr unterhaltsam ausgestattet und bietet auch erwachsenen Lesern gute Unterhaltung. Zumindest ich hatte sehr viel Spass mit diesem Diebesduo.

Aber gegen Ende des Buches wird Walliams auch ernst und spricht über das Thema Sterben. Der Autor macht das auf passende Art und Weise, sodass die jungen Leser gut an dieses wichtige Thema herangeführt werden. Dennoch ist es vielleicht sinnvoll, wenn die Kinder jemanden dabei haben, mit dem sie ggf. über die Bereiche Krebs, Sterben und Tod sprechen können.

"Gangsta-Oma" ist ein Buch, das einem auf verschiedene Weise ans Herz geht. Auch, und vielleicht vor allem, den erwachsenen Lesern.

Boy finally thinks his granny isn’t boring , whoop.. I remember my first Walliams being the sequel of this book and was assuming this would’ve been better. But in general this was ok in comparison to his other work. 


My tier ranking of the author books so far : 

THE BOY IN THE DRESS, MIDNIGHT GANG , GRANDPA’S GREAT ESCAPE >
MR.STINK , AWFUL AUNTIE , BAD DAD, MEGAMONSTER >
RAT BURGER >
DEMON DENTIST, ICE MONSTER > 
GANGSTA GRANNY, BILLIONAIRE BOY, FING > SLIME
