Following the self-deprecating hero through school scrapes, holidays and football fails, this bumper paperback set suits reluctant readers, classroom libraries and gift buyers. Illustrated throughout, it's ideal for children aged 7-9 who love silly, relatable humour.. About the Books. Barry Loser has never minded his surname because his "keelness" always cancelled it out — until Darren Darrenofski turned up and ruined everything. Across this eleven-book collection, readers follow Barry through a chaotic caravan holiday, a new baby brother stealing attention, a disastrous half-term, an eventful birthday, a nightmare school trip, and a football career gone spectacularly wrong. The final title, Barry Loser's Book of Keel Stuff, adds bonus jokes and activities. Written and illustrated by Jim Smith in Barry's own scrappy, spell-checked voice, each book combines short chapters, comic-style drawings and playground slang ("keel", "unkeel") that becomes part of every reader's vocabulary. The series won the Roald Dahl Funny Prize for funniest children's book, appealing to fans of Diary of a Wimpy Kid, Tom Gates and Mr Gum. This set gives readers Barry's adventures in one go, ideal for reading in order or dipping in.. Reluctant reader friendly: short chapters and playful text keep pages turning..
