Shortlisted for Roald Dahl's Funny Prize 2009.
Touching, funny and full of insight, this tender story tells how Dennis decides that everyone does not have to be the same. Bravely, he decides to do something completely different. Taking a risk he reinvents himself and begins to see the world in a whole new way. Quentin Blake’s illustrations capture the exhilarating liberation that Dennis feels.

Synopsis
The sparkling debut children's novel from David Walliams, co-creator and co-star of the multi-award-winning Little Britain. Dennis was different. Why was he different, you ask? Well, a small clue might be in the title of this book! Charming, surprising and hilarious.
About The Author
David Walliams is an English comedian, writer and actor, known for his partnership with Matt Lucas on the sketch show Little Britain and its predecessor Rock Profile.
Walliams took up swimming as a youth as his preferred form of exercise, because he was overweight. On 4 July 2006, after about 9 months training, he swam the English Channel for the charity Sport Relief and raised about one million pounds.
