Description
Suit up with the Redhill Peewees and laugh your head off! The Funny Kid series is super popular for a reason!
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 Funny Kid adventure.
FUNNY KID is the mega-bestselling series from author-illustrator Matt Stanton that has everyone laughing!
