View full detailsSometimes, all you need is a good laugh. In this collection, you’ll find all of the funniest books we sell for children, teens, and grown-ups. From bestsellers like David Walliams and The Thursday Murder Club, to classics such as Roald Dahl and The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, we’ve got you covered for a rip-roaring good time. We’ve got funny fantasy, relatable real-world stories, hilarious history, and more, so you won’t run out of witty reads any time soon. What’s the funniest book you’ve ever read? Let us know on social media.
Ages 0-5
There’s no better way to get your child interested in reading than a funny picture book. Axel Scheffler’s Flip Flap series is a great example. Each book is spiral bound, and each page is split down the middle. On the left, there is a lighthearted description of the animal - be it bird, dinosaur or insect - and on the right there is an illustration. Simply mix and match the illustrations and descriptions for over a hundred wild and different brand new creatures per book! This is just one example of the many funny and silly picture, touch and feel and lift-the-flap books we have in stock.
Ages 5-7
Learning to read can be a struggle. What better way to get your kid to push through than a funny book or two? Especially if it’s a character they already know and love - like Peppa Pig! We’ve got a great range of Peppa box sets and collections. We’ve got a great selection of bedtime stories, perfect for unwinding at the end of a long day. We’ve got two different bumper boxsets with fifty books in each - you won’t run out of stories quickly with that! We’ve also got a collection of Read With Ladybird Peppa Pig stories, which use a limited number of words in order to encourage literacy. Why not pick up some Peppa today?
Ages 7-9
Once a kid is starting to read independently, they’re going to gravitate towards books that give them pleasure, joy, and are perhaps a bit rude! We’ve got loads of great box sets from authors you’ll know like Roald Dahl and Michael Rosen, and favourite series like Horrid Henry. However, if you haven’t heard of the Treehouse series, then you need to get on board. This hilarious series from Australians Andy Griffiths and Terry Denton has sold over 10 million copies worldwide, and is perfect for fans of Diary of a Wimpy Kid. Check this out and more hilarious books in the collection above!
Ages 9-14
At this age, you know what you’re about. And if you want something funny to read, you can’t go far wrong with The Blockbuster Baddiel 3 Book Collection. In these books, you’ll meet kids who get to find out what it’s like to pick your own parents, control other people, or be an animal - and it’s not quite what they thought! Find this series and other great reads in this collection.
YA
Louise Rennison was at the forefront of YA literature in the 2000s, and her books are still popular with teenagers twenty years later. Get the Confessions of Georgia Nicolson Complete Collection and find out what the hype is all about. The first two books were adapted into the hit film Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging. This collection and more can be found at a great discount on our website.
Adult
You’re never too old to have a good laugh. We stock a variety of classic and recent hilarious books. Maybe you like the wry humour of All Creatures Great and Small, available as a great-value box set? Or perhaps you’re more after the riotous The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy? Either way, you’ll find something you’ll love in this collection.
