Louis the Laugh, who readers may have met before in How To Train Your Parents, flunks exams and wants to be a comedian. In My Parents Are Out Of Control, his mother and father, who are pushy at heart, decide they need to be cooler. It all escalates horribly, via slapstick and farce, until sense prevails

Glowing with Pete Johnson’s trademark warmth and good humour, this is a not to be missed novel with wickedly sharp, perfectly timed writing

Very funny . . . Reminded me very much of The Secret Diary of Adrian Mole

The most hotly anticipated children's book of the year is here - Diary of a Wimpy Kid

LaFleur deftly handles the tale's many layers, never allowing readers to get lost. Events and characters are fully developed and are completely believable, without any sense of contrivance. Tender and brave, Siena is a heroine to be admired

Allan's cheeky laugh-out-loud celebration

Following the huge success of The Queen’s Knickers, here comes Allan with another peek into life in Royal households...There is much to discuss in all Allan’s pictures, and the simple text will tempt many young readers.

This hilarious, contemporary story ... is equally irreverent and funny, and destined to become a family favourite.

A gentle tale stuffed full of drama, elements of coming-of-age, dealing with grief and first love that make it irresistible

This book is interesting, fun, and very insightful. Chambers takes an inventive approach to his writing

Truly brilliant and unforgettable

This book is like nothing else I have ever read . . . An excellent YA read

A real page turner

Chambers delivers yet another intellectually satisfying novel with equal parts philosophy and repartee

A feelgood and story that quietly challenges a whole range of touchy subjects and social taboo
