Ratburger by David Walliams

A zany, fast-paced, and deliciously disgusting adventure packed with humour, heart, and a whole lot of trouble!

In Ratburger, Zoe’s life is far from perfect. She’s stuck with a miserable stepmother, her pet hamster has sadly died, and school isn’t much fun either. Just when everything seems gloomy, Zoe discovers a tiny rat living under her bed—a clever, adorable little creature she names Armitage. Unlike most rats, Armitage can do incredible tricks, and Zoe dreams of showing the world just how special he is.

But trouble arrives in the form of the slimy Burt, a creepy burger van owner with a terrible secret and an even worse business idea. When Burt catches sight of Armitage, Zoe finds herself in a frantic race to save her new friend from a truly awful fate.

Filled with David Walliams’ trademark silliness, larger-than-life villains, and warm-hearted heroes, Ratburger is both laugh-out-loud funny and wonderfully thrilling. Tony Ross’s energetic illustrations add even more fun to this quirky tale.

Perfect for readers aged 8–12, Ratburger is a wild, witty story that celebrates friendship, bravery, and standing up for the ones you love—no matter how small or squeaky they may be!
