Funny Kid Catastrophe (Funny Kid, #11): The hilarious, laugh-out-loud children's series for 2024 from million-copy mega-bestselling author Matt Stanton

By Matt Stanton

A new pet purchase becomes CATASTROPHIC. 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.

He's also the boy who absolutely, definitely, does not under any circumstances want a cat. So why did Mum and Dad just bring one home?

Max is the funny kid but now a cat is here to ruin his life!

Cat bums, cat claws, ticklish cats, piano-playing cats, cats that will run away and cats that won't (oh, and a jealous Duck in a toilet jacuzzi) 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!
