Funny Kid Slapstick by Matt Stanton

The fifth instalment in the mega-bestselling Funny Kid series.

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.

The Utterly Indescribable Thing That Happened in Huggabie Falls by Adam Cece

Have you ever encountered something you couldn’t describe?

Something so utterly indescribable you’re not even sure what it is, or how it works, or whether it even exists at all? When an utterly indescribable thing turns up in Huggabie Falls and makes everyone act very weirdly, even by Huggabie Falls standards, Kipp, Tobias and Cymphany know they must put a stop to it. But that’s not easy when you’re dealing with Felonious Dark’s evil triplet brother, a giant sticky silkworm web, a super-cute talking goat called Copernicus and something no one can describe.

The Utterly Indescribable Thing that Happened in Huggabie Falls is the final book in the Huggabie Falls trilogy, the funniest, weirdest, most indescribable series ever written, so far.
