Julia Eccleshare's comment:
7 +. Disgusting Dirty Bertie is back for a new set of mucky adventures. As ever he has some crazy plans up his sleeve most of which involve him being disgusting in more ways than can easily be imagined. This time Bertie dresses up as a vampire for his school’s book week. But someone else has the same idea and soon things are going far from smoothly for Bertie!

Synopsis

About The Author
Alan was born in Watford and went to university in Bangor, North Wales,
where he studied English and Drama. He started working life in a
travelling theatre company, visiting schools all over the country &
writing much of their material. He says it was a useful apprenticeship -
if the audience didn't like the play, they talked through it or threw
bits of paper at the actors. He very quickly learned what children
liked.
Alan later trained as a drama teacher at Nottingham
University, but most of his work in connection with the theatre has been
as a writer or director. Other jobs have included working as an editor
and working in a day centre.
A keen football fan, Alan has
supported Watford FC since childhood. Many of his stories have a
football focus - which he rates as the next best thing to playing for
England! He dreamed of becoming a professional footballer, but when he
won a pen in a writing competition, his fate was sealed.
Alan has written over eighty children's books, which have been translated into many languages and won several awards. In 2010, Dirty Bertie: Loo! was winner of the Leicestershire Children's Book Prize. Alan also writes for TV, including the hugely popular 'Horrid Henry' on CITV.
