David Walliams always likes to think big. He’s swum the Channel, the entire length of Thames – and his latest book Awful Auntie was the biggest selling book (of ALL books) in the UK last year! Whatever next?

Well, what about a multi-city tour by HELICOPTER for World Book Day - 5 March 2015? Yep, David is going to pay flying visits to schools across the UK in the Walliams Whirlwind tour!

Maybe your school will win a place! Schools need to register their details on www.worldofdavidwalliams.com and in just 50 words explain why their school should win a visit from David Walliams. The competition is open now and all entries must be received by 6th February.

Good luck everyone!
