What to expect

Bloomsbury presents Adam Wins the Internet written and read by Adam B.

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 …

This brilliant audiobook 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.

A superbly funny debut comedy story … A wonderful read, full of fun but, above all, heart and a clear message to not give up on your dreams. Perfect for young comedy fans of books by David Baddiel

ten years old, as it has exactly what
we like in it
