Synopsis

A hilarious new series by bestselling author Phil Earle which introduces Finn N. O. Hope and his life of epic failure! Perfect for listeners of Diary of a Wimpy Kid, Loki and Tom Gates. 

?Finn just wants to survive Year 7, but his life is destined to be a series of epic fails. It's only Tuesday and his scheming, unicorn-obsessed little sister has already stuck a horn to his head (with superglue) and his properly evil older brother has wedgied him 278 times. And don't even ask what happened at swimming, in front of the WHOLE CLASS. At least he has best friends Laszlo (a hopeless romantic) and Google (ask her anything) by his side as he attempts to turn failure into victory in his very own book that is definitely not a diary. 

‘A comedy classic and hilarious page-turner from a genuinely brilliant writer.’ Liz Pichon, author of Tom Gates series
 
‘Pure comedy genius – Finn's Epic Fails will have you howling with laughter and cheering for more! This book belongs on every kid's bookshelf!’ – Jenny Pearson, author of The Super Miraculous Journey of Freddie Yates

What a banger, what a laugh. Way to go Phil for filling a gap in the market that desperately needed filling. This is Lottie Brooks for boys, and it’s brilliant!......more
