Laugh out loud - L O L

Tony Ross has fallen in love. He isn't the best-looking guy, he's not very smart, and girls don't seem to like him much. But that doesn't stop Tony from setting out to get a girl. And not just any girl. The most popular girl in school - Ashleigh Simpkin. But things don't go quite according to plan especially when his best friend, Kane (who happens to be hot-looking and good at things like kissing) does a pretty darn good job of sabotaging Tony's plans. This is the first book in a hilarious new series by award-winning author Pat Flynn. It's about spin-the-bottle, getting girls, braces, and finding out who your best mates really are. It's broken into short story-style chapters linked by Tony's mission to steal a kiss from Ashleigh, with hilarious consequences.

Jeffrey spends his Saturdays working in Mr Prendergast's junk shop. One day, while they are sorting things out, they uncover a mysterious machine. Jeffrey takes it home to see if he can make it work. It turns out to be a joke-producing machine, and an extremely funny one at that! Soon everyone in town wants one of its jokes. Everyone except Mr Jenkinson, that is, the miserable owner of the shop next door. Of course, what Mr Jenkinson really needs to do is get a sense of humour instead of trying to ruin everyone's fun. But who will get the last laugh?

"Nanny Piggins and The Ringmaster's Revenge is a classic storybook with a healthy twist of black humour. Not particularly set in any country or in any time, an ex-circus flying pig answers a 'wanted' ad for a nanny. She is a nanny like no other, and the three children she looks after love her. She insists on the constant consumption of huge amounts of chocolate, thinks school is a complete waste of time and has the most outlandish sense of adventure (after all, she spent her formative years getting fired out of a cannon). Nanny Piggins is a confident, glamorous, pig-of-the-world. She embodies the spirit of the 1920s Flapper. She wears beautifully stylish clothes (vintage designer outfits) and thinks nothing of taking the most daring risks (ie flying a plane, wrestling a salt water crocodile, or playing pin the tail on the donkey with a real donkey). So, imagine a pig that looks like an old-fashioned movie star with chocolate smeared all over her face. "--Provided by publisher.
