Once upon a time, a little boy called Joe had a father who worked in a shop where he made loo-rolls – wrapped them round the tubes, round, all day long. He soon made his own loo-roll – Bumfresh (I can’t remember the proper name, but I think it’s Bumfresh). The young man sold them through and out the world – even the Queen bought one. He soon became rich, rich, rich, rich – very rich.
Mr Spud (Joe’s father) soon broke up with his wife, and lived in a massive house with his son. Joe soon moved schools, and found a friend there called Bob. He made wonderful friends with him – until one day, a new girl called Lauren came, and this made Joe have a girlfriend straight away. When finally Bob found out, he and Joe fell out…
It turns out that because all Joe wanted was a friend, Mr Spud had bought Lauren to be his son’s friend – Lauren was pretending to like Joe, and all went fine until one day when Joe tried to kiss Lauren.
Weirdly, it also turned out that Lauren was an actress, plus she was hanging out with another boy the other day.
When Joe found out, he made friends with Bob again, kicked Lauren out of his life and went to live with Bob. But why do that then stay in a massive house with about a thousand rooms? Well, you’ll have to wait and see! 😉
This book was great, funny, amazing, sad, lovely and most of all: FUN. David Walliams must be rich by the amount of amazing books he’s sold!!
