Book Description
Special 10th anniversary edition with bonus content This special edition marks ten years of the brilliantly funny children's novel. The Parent Agency is an epic wish-fulfilment adventure for every child - and for the child in everyone. Barry said, a third time, "I wish I had better parents!" And then suddenly the entire room started to shake... Barry Bennett hates being called Barry. In fact it's number 2 on the list of things he blames his parents for, along with 1) 'being boring' and 3) 'always being tired'.

For Barry Bennett, this world seems like a dream come true. Only things turn out to be not quite that simple...
