“Metió la mano debajo de la almohada una vez más. El diente seguía allí donde lo había dejado. Justo entonces Alfie oyó algo moviéndose entre los arbustos de fuera. Podría ser un pájaro, o una ardilla, o incluso una rata. Pero no, hacía demasiado ruido; tenía que ser algo más voluminoso.”
David Walliams, La increíble historia de... La dentista demonio
“PODRÍAN. SER. ELLOS. Alfie deslizaba la mano debajo de la almohada cada dos por tres para asegurarse de que el diente seguía allí. ¿Quién o qué iba a entrar en su habitación? ¿Y cómo intentaría arrebatarle el diente? Estando allí acostado a oscuras, su imaginación empezó a hacer de las suyas. Pronto le costaba distinguir entre lo que era real y lo que solo existía en su mente. ¿Estaba acostado despierto? ¿O se había quedado dormido y en realidad soñaba que estaba despierto? Pasaron horas. ¿O fueron minutos? Imposible saberlo. Al otro lado de la ventana de Alfie no se oía absolutamente nada. Ni un pájaro cantando. Ni un avión surcando el cielo. Ni siquiera un coche alejándose. Era lo más profundo de la noche.”
David Walliams, La increíble historia de... La dentista demonio
“metió en la cama y apagó la vela que tenía en la mano. Estando allí tumbado se dio cuenta de que no necesitaba ninguno de esos trucos para no quedarse dormido. De hecho, jamás había estado tan desvelado en toda su vida. Al principio la noche parecía un remanso de paz y silencio, pero al cabo de poco, cada sonido que llegaba a sus oídos, por leve que fuera, un murmullo, un crujido, lo hacía temblar de miedo... PODRÍAN SER ELLOS. PODRÍAN SER ELLOS. PODRÍAN SER ELLOS. Las sombras empezaron a bailar en las paredes. No eran más que las siluetas de los árboles iluminados por los faros de los coches que pasaban, ¿verdad? ¿O sería otra cosa mucho más siniestra?... PODRÍAN SER ELLOS. PODRÍAN SER ELLOS.”
David Walliams, La increíble historia de... La dentista demonio

David Walliams, Demon Dentist
“Excellent! Now I came to this town when a very unfortunate, indeed fatal, accident befell Mr Erstwhile. The poor wretch must have fallen on to one of his own dental instruments. Oh, the irony! Of course there’s no need to go into all the gory details, but suffice it to say, Mr Erstwhile was found lying on the floor of his surgery in a huge pool of blood. The dental probe was embedded deep in his heart…”

“Push!” she implored. Alfie took in her position. All he could now see of his social worker were her more than ample buttocks. “Where?” he asked innocently. “My booty!” Reluctantly he placed his hands on Winnie’s abundant bum.”
David Walliams, Demon Dentist
“Without Alfie even touching the handle, the door shut slowly and firmly behind him. There was the sound of a key being turned. Somehow he was locked in. “How splendid! Two pm precisely! You are right on time for your appointment. Come on in…” Miss Root’s voice had a hypnotic quality to it. As much as Alfie knew in his mind he should run away, his legs propelled him forward. He was moving slowly and surely towards her. “Come to Mummy…” she whispered. As he drew closer, he could see the source of bright light was a vast Anglepoise lamp. Now Alfie was standing in her shadow he could make out Miss Root more clearly. Looking up at her, the first thing he noticed were her huge gleaming white teeth. As big as the ivory keys on a grand piano. Next he noticed her eyes.”
David Walliams, Demon Dentist
“The dentist followed the children’s gaze and fixed her eyes on Alfie. “Oh yes, I thought it might be you…” Miss Root’s long, thin, gnarled finger pointed straight at him. “You, boy. Come to Mummy…” When Alfie’s shaking legs finally propelled him to the front of the hall, he looked into the dentist’s eyes for the first time. Miss Root’s eyes were black. Blacker than oil. Blacker than coal. Blacker than the blackest black.”
David Walliams, Demon Dentist
“It was a multicoloured world of make-believe, a million miles away from their black-and-white existence. “Take me to the haunted house again, Daddy!” the boy would beg. “Perhaps today, my pup, we will take a journey to the old haunted castle…!” Dad would tease. “Please, please, please…” Alfie would say. Father and son would close their eyes and meet in their daydreams. Together they: • Went out fishing for the day in Scotland and caught the Loch Ness Monster.”
David Walliams, Demon Dentist
“With no mum or brothers or sisters, Alfie had to care for his father alone. Besides having to go to school and do his homework, the boy would do all the shopping, all the cleaning, cook all the meals, and do all the washing up. Alfie never complained though. He loved his dad with all his heart.”
David Walliams, Demon Dentist
“No one could replace Dad, but Winnie made him feel safe. And warm. And most importantly, loved.”
David Walliams, Demon Dentist
“the window on the count of three. But even with all of Miss Veal’s”
