Overview
This brand-new four-book paperback collection brings together the wildly popular children's fiction of comedian-turned-author David Baddiel. Featuring The Parent Agency, AniMalcolm, The Person Controller and Head Kid, the set delivers laugh-out-loud storytelling wrapped around themes of family, identity, friendship and school life. Perfect for confident young readers, reluctant readers, classrooms and home libraries alike, this is a fantastic value bundle for fans of funny, fast-paced middle-grade fiction.

About the Books
In The Parent Agency, Barry Bennett wishes for better parents and finds himself in a bizarre world where children choose their own mums and dads from an agency of hopefuls — a hilarious look at what really makes a family. AniMalcolm follows a boy who starts turning into different animals at the most inconvenient moments, forcing him to navigate school, friendship and a very unusual identity crisis with humour and heart. The Person Controller sees twins Fred and Ellie, gaming champions at home but awkward at school, discover a mysterious games controller that lets them control real people — with chaotic, funny and surprisingly moving consequences. Head Kid turns the school hierarchy upside down when troublemaker Ryan Ward and a fearsome new headteacher swap bodies, unleashing classroom anarchy and unexpected lessons in empathy. Across all four stories, Baddiel's trademark wit and warmth about belonging and self-acceptance shine through, making these books favourites for children who love authors like David Walliams. Each story stands alone, so children can dip in and out in any order. Snappy chapters keep the pace brisk, ideal for read-aloud sessions and independent reading.
