Children’s books are awash with vile villains and cruel characters. From puppy-stealing Cruella de Vil to greedy Count Olaf and the terrifying Grand High Witch, readers love to hate foul fictional figures. Join authors Maz Evans (Vi Spy) and M G Leonard (Adventures on Trains) with host author and book reviewer for The Week Junior Katherine Woodfine (Taylor & Rose) and special guests to decide who should be crowned the wickedest of them all.
