Adam likes nothing more than making his mum and little brother laugh, something that’s even more important since his dad died.
He’d love to make the rest of the world laugh too and when he accidentally goes viral on YouTube, it seems his dream will come true, especially with the help provided by Popularis Incrementum, a mysterious, possibly magical pop up on his phone.
Adam’s adventures as he goes all out to hit one million subscribers are achingly funny for readers and of course his growing band of subscribers, but it’s only when everything suddenly seems to be on the brink of disaster that he realises Popularis Incrementum had set him a different challenge altogether, one much closer to home.
Author Adam B knows all about internet fame, but a great deal too about adolescent boys, families, and how to engage and entertain readers. Put down the phone and pick up this book for laughs (and just maybe a few tears too).
The spectacular debut children's book from TV presenter and YouTube star Adam B! Everybody dreams of becoming a superstar YouTube sensation, but for Adam - a penniless, cameraless nobody, with only one friend - it isn't just a dream, it's a complete and utter, Never-Going-To-Happen-In-A-Million-Years, Absolute Impossibility!
That is until he stumbles across the mysterious Popularis Incrementum website. As if by magic, Adam is thrown into a world of fame, fortune and hotels with really, really, really fancy TVs! But Adam's luck may be running out. When he accepts a mission to reach one million subscribers in one year, it becomes clear that he has bitten off way more than he can chew, and his life becomes one epic fail after another. Fortunately for Adam, he still has a trick or two up his sleeve.
Featuring bold black-and-white illustrations from James Lancett throughout, this brilliant, bright hardback will make the perfect Christmas gift for budding young YouTubers everywhere!
Fans of David Baddiel, Greg James and Chris Smith and Noel Fitzpatrick's Vetman will be spellbound.
