-- Lachie, aged 11, on Funny Kid for President

Every kid wants to laugh, but Max is the boy who can make it happen.

Only now he's been forced to join the local ice-hockey team, and there's nothing funny about slipping over and getting a frozen bum. Or is there?

Max is the funny kid ... and this time he's skating on thin ice!

Epic fails, a wrestling rhinoceros called Roxanne, fake news, locker rooms filled with popcorn and the dreaded return of Mr Armstrong are just some of the things in store for Max and his friends in this brand-new Funny Kid adventure.

For fans of Diary of a Wimpy Kid, Tom Gates and WeirDo, FUNNY KID is the mega-bestselling series from author-illustrator Matt Stanton.
