ARGHHHH! Laugh your head off with the super-popular Funny Kid series!

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

When his friends start talking about a new scary movie, Max realises they don't just want to laugh ... they also want to scream!

Max is the funny kid, but does he know how to make his own scary movie?

An oversupply of slime, a bumbling babysitter, a ghastly ghost, a melodramatic mummy and a terrifying beast called Duckenstein are just some of the things in store for Max and his friends in this brand-new Funny Kid adventure.

FUNNY KID is the mega-bestselling series from author-illustrator Matt Stanton that has everyone laughing!
