The best of a new breed of techno-thriller that will satisfy even the most hardened tech head.

Subtly layered . . . This distinctive collection of stories, touching and funny, will be a joy to read

Laugh-out-loud funny

Hats off to a winning canine antihero

Cheery contemporary stories . . . The characters of child and dog are delightfully drawn

Switching between Chuck and Danielle's viewpoints and with knowing asides to his child readers, Dickinson produces great comedy . . . An approachable book that will also read aloud well and provide a lot of amusement (and some food for thought)

This book is brilliant for all those who want to laugh out loud . . . This diary has it all including brilliant illustrations

I give this 10/10 (I might not have entirely enjoyed the boy humour but it was well written, suited the style of the book which addresses serious issues with a smile)

Dermot's voice is blunt and hilarious, exactly what you'd expect from a boy of his age . . . The Donut Diaries is the perfect book for readers aged 9+, especially those who will soon be starting big school themselves

A hilarious diary which will have the reader chuckling as events unfold - and empathising with Dermot as he shares anguishes common to many near-teenage boys

This is the funniest book I have ever read, I can't wait until the next book in the series. I would recommend it to anyone who likes a little laugh

Funny and sweet in equal measure and I thoroughly enjoyed it

A new twist to the diary genre

Like a donut, this book is somehow sweet and disgusting at the same time. Oh, and it's very funny too!

It's very much that wet sloppy fart kind of humour. Your kids will absolutely love this book. It's a great "next step up" the reading ladder
