Head Kid

A bonanza of big bad laughs from the brilliant David Baddiel. Every school has one. You know: the naughty kid. The clown. The prankster. The one who drives all the teachers wild. At Bracket Wood School, that kid is Ryan Ward. How bad is he? Well – so awful that the headteacher has just walked out. Then the new head arrives. Uh-oh. This guy is so strict even the teachers are scared of him. But when he and Ryan swap bodies, the bad kid becomes the head kid. Now Ryan is in charge – and the real head is one of his pupils. Tee hee!

  • A cheeky treat from comedy king David Baddiel
  • A wildly entertaining wish-fulfilment adventure
  • Full of role reversals, surprises and witty twists
  • Hilarious pictures by illustrator Steven Lenton
