  • (95 reviews)

    Barry Loser is a madcap illustrated series for kids aged 6+ and a must-read for any child that loves silly books.

    Barry Loser didn’t mind his name being “Loser” because his coolness “has always cancelled it out". But when Darren Darrenofski joins the school, he starts to tease him and call him names, the previous cool Barry suddenly becomes a loser for real. Can he come up with an amaze-keel plan to get him back on track?

    Written and illustrated by Jim Smith, the series has been awarded the Royal Dahl Funny Prize for the Funniest Book for I am Still Not a Loser. With silly jokes, pranks, funny drawings and plenty of burps and farts, the Barry Loser books are perfect for fans of Captain Underpants, Tom Gates and Diary of a Wimpy Kid.
