Friday January 2nd I felt rotten today. It's my mother's fault for singing 'My Way' at two o'clock in the morning at the top of the stairs. Just my luck to have a mother like her. There is a chance my parents could be alcoholics. Next year I could be in a children's home. Meet Adrian Mole a hapless teenager providing an unabashed pimples-and-all glimpse into adolescent life. Writing candidly about his parents' marital troubles the dog his life as a tortured poet and 'misunderstood intellectual' Adrian's painfully honest diary is still hilarious and compelling reading thirty years after it first appeared.

Very funny indeed' Sunday Times 'We laugh both at Mole and with him. A wonderful comic read that like all the best comedy says something rather meaningful' Heat ----- Sue Townsend is Britain's favourite comic author.
