The Accidental books, by author and illustrator Tom McLaughlin, are perfect for fun-loving readers aged 9+.
These hilarious stories follow schoolkids in amazing jobs and situations – schoolboy turned secret agent, inventor turned billlionaire and, of course, the accidental prime minister whose video saying what he would do if he were leader of the country goes viral, with unexpected consequences.
The fabulous illustrations and laugh-out-loud adventures make these books a real hit with young readers and encourage them to think about politics too! You can read them in any order, but we recommend starting with book one - The Accidental Prime Minister.
