Demon Dentist by David Walliams

Demon Dentist by David Walliams is a very strange book.  It's about a dentist who actually is the Tooth Witch and a boy who defeats her. The main characters are Alfie, a boy who has not been to the dentist since he was six. Dad, Alfie's dad who used to be a coal miner but digging so deep effected his lungs and he suddenly collapsed on the ground and the he was evacuated to the hospital and the doctor told him never to go down a mine again. Winnie, a social worker who is very fat, wears multicolored clothes all the time and cannot say the 'th' sound. She says 'teet' instead of teeth. Miss Root a dentist who is secretly the Tooth Witch and her Cat, Fang.

Alfie's dentist died so Miss Root replaced him and she likes kids to call her 'Mummy'. Miss Root made her own toothpaste called Mummy Likes Your Teeth which burns right through stone. So it's basically toxic waste. Miss Root loves to have children come to her surgery for dental issues because she takes out all of their teeth and that happened to Alfie so he got a set of false teeth. When little kids put their tooth under their pillow hoping for the tooth fairy to come and leave a penny under their pillow, they find a cockroach, an eyeball, a bunch of centipedes, basically all the gross stuff. Miss Root is secretly the Tooth Witch and she uses the teeth she steals to build her lair in the old coal mine.

In the end Alfie discovers the lair of the tooth witch and the the witch finds him and tries to dump him in a cauldron full of 'Mummy Likes Your Teeth' but the Alfie's dad comes and saves him and dumps the witch in the cauldron but Alfie's dad had trouble breathing in the mine and when he got out he died and his funeral was the next day. On Alfie's dad's funeral Raj was the first one to burst into tears and Alfie was left as an orphan but Winnie asked if she could adopt Alfie and she was allowed. Five weeks later Winnie gets married but to who? It turns out it was Raj. Now Alfie had a stepdad who owns a candy shop! He had all the candy in the world!

I really liked this book because it had many made-up words, for example: 'headmasterishly'
it was really funny and I hope you guys will like it.
