A hilarious new series by award-winning author Phil Earle
which introduces Finn N. O. Hope and his life of epic failure! Perfect for
readers 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 wedgier 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

About the Author
I didn't always want to be a writer.
I wanted to play football for Hull City, but when a complete
absence of talent, skill or stamina cruelly thwarted my lofty ambitions, I
turned to daydreaming instead, which led me to storytelling.
I've written twenty-five books now for children and
teenagers, and LOVE visiting schools, libraries and festivals to talk to people
about the power of stories. It's a magnificent way to live my life...
Home is on the side of a very steep hill in Yorkshire, with
my wife, our children and two dogs.
