The children's author David Walliams dropped by book publisher.

The author

Acclaimed young adult author and TV personality David Walliams is no longer with his UK book publisher, according to an announcement.

A representative for the firm commented: "Upon deliberation, and with the guidance of its fresh leadership, HarperCollins UK has chosen to cease publishing any new titles by David Walliams."

Reports indicate that the conclusion was reached following an inquiry regarding allegations of questionable actions towards female individuals.

The publisher has not elaborated on the reasons for its decision, noting: "We refrain from speaking about confidential company decisions."

A Prolific Publishing History

Walliams stands as a most best-selling authors for kids, with sales exceeding more than 60 million copies worldwide in five dozen languages.

His first children's book, *The Boy in the Dress*, was published by HarperCollins fifteen years ago.

Several of his books, for example *Gangsta Granny* and *Billionaire Boy*, have subsequently been turned into small-screen adaptations.

He has published over four dozen titles altogether, encompassing a Christmas book called *Santa & Son*, which was published by HarperCollins in October.

From Screen to Page

His career breakthrough occurred on the television comedy show *Little Britain* and has been honored with National Television Awards for his role as a panelist on *Britain's Got Talent*.

He received an OBE several years ago honoring his contributions to charity and the arts.

This development follows the appointment of Kate Elton as HarperCollins UK's new chief executive this past October.
