Summary

Super funny, full colour comic book, with laugh out loud humour and extraordinary science, from the bestselling author of the Barry Loser series.

GK and Flea, two ordinary schoolkids with hilariously overactive brains, are back in this fantastic joke and fact book from the author/illustrator of the Barry Loser books.

Bringing science crazily to life in a whole new way, GK and Flea discuss everything VIRUSES! From the techy kind of virus that shut down computer mainframes and causes total panic.

To the going-viral global-fame type of virus that also creates total panic.

To the snotty gross kind of virus which creates must-go-to-bed now total panic . . .

With laughs a plenty and time for daydreaming, this is a science-humour-fact book classic for reluctant readers.

Hugely enjoyable, surreal chaos.

The Guardian

Critic Reviews

Genius Kid makes science fun and (. . .) subverts tradition by reminding children of the importance of switching off and daydreaming. A very silly, funny book.

Lucy Bannerman, The Times

Critic Reviews

Hugely enjoyable, surreal chaos.
