Granny Samurai (GS) is an adventure story and also about the Lost Secret Art of Kenjo – Granny's guide to being a samurai. Granny is a small fierce fighter and, when Samuel Johnson's uncle is captured by the Monkey King, GS looks after him. She has to protect Samuel from both the Monkey King and Boris Hizzocks, the school bully. The Monkey King wants a tennis racket which belongs to Samuel's uncle which will allow him to talk to all the animals in the zoo and share his evil plan with them.

GS is a fun and scary book. The Monkey King is particularly scary, especially the pictures of him. I liked Granny's double action repeater weapon. It isn't easy to read because it has lots of long words.
