Son1 ran round the room crazily with excitement when I told him that our free copy of Shoutykid 3 was on the way to review. He has been eagerly awaiting its publication since reading Shoutykid 2 in April, when he saw the third book mentioned at the back.

Shoutykid3 by Simon Mayle

Shoutykid 3 is a very funny story about a boy Harry Riddles who writes shouty letters to other people, including famous people like the president of Russia. Son1’s favourite part of Shoutykid3 was when everyone fell off a boat into the water. And his favourite character is Kid Zombie.

The full title of the book is Shoutykid How Harry Riddles Got Nearly Almost Famous. It is written by Simon Mayle.

This is the letter on the back cover.

Hi there,

So I’ve joined a band with Jess and this new kid, Kevin, who is pretty annoying but also a REALLY talented guitar player. We’ve got a good shot at winning the Battle of the Bands competition for our school as long as Kevin doesn’t get expelled first. But here’s the thing, my dad has this crazy idea to take me, my mum, my EVIL sister and my twin brothers sailing round the world. For TWO years!!!! Swimming with dolphins, and scuba diving would be pretty cool, but how am I meant to reach rock stardom if I’m stuck on a boat in the middle of the ocean?

Good luck and have fun.
Harry Riddles

Disclosure. This post is a review of a product I was sent for free. All opinions are my own.

Son1 was delighted to be offered the chance to read Shoutykid 2 for free having previously enjoyed reading the first Shoutykid book which he reviewed here.

Each day he would ask is it here yet and once it did arrive, he started reading it straight-away. And it only took him a few days to read, much much faster than the first book.

The full title of the book is Shoutykid How Harry Riddles Mega-Massively Broke the School. It is written by Simon Mayle.

Shoutykid by Simon Mayle

Shoutykid 2 is a very funny story about 10 year old Harry Riddles who writes shouty letters to famous people! Son1 found it very funny and gave it a big thumbs up.

Here is an example of one letter.

Dear Prince George,

It kind of sucks when your mum has a new baby and everyone’s like, ‘Congratulations, isn’t it great?’ and you’re thinking, ‘Not really, I might have to share my bedroom.’ But maybe you don’t have that problem? Don’t worry that your Mum and Dad will like the new baby more than you – they probably won’t and anyway you still get to be King one day so Ha! I won’t get my own country but I am better than the twins at X-box!

Good luck and have fun

PS. Say hi to the Queen from me.
