Welcome to Big School.

Humza Khan - aka Little Badman, Eggington's greatest rapper - might have finally met his match.

Evil teacher geniuses and giant killer hamsters (see previous Little Badman adventures for details) are nothing compared to starting a new school.

He's already been out rap-battled by the school bully, laughed at by his classmates. Oh, and we haven't even mentioned the ancient magical orb causing havoc and very possibly leading to world destruction.

At least Humza has found someone to help with his homework. It's just a shame this friend isn't exactly . . . alive.


Praise for the LITTLE BADMAN series

‘Wildly over the top and satisfying’ The Observer

 ‘A very funny fast-paced adventure story, full of mischief.’ The Guardian

‘100% hilarious’ The Bookseller

‘If you like the laugh out loud writing of David Walliams or David Solomons, this story will be right up your street.’ The Week Junior

‘Children have been pretty much starved of highly amusing books starring Muslim characters, so let the revolution begin!’ BookTrust
