With a 4.6-star rating from over 11,000 reviews and an unabridged audio version, it’s a culturally rich, witty fable that resonates across generations and sparks important conversations on money, bullying, and love. ## Description A hilarious, touching and extraordinary new fable from David Walliams, number one bestseller and one of the fastest growing children’s author across the globe. Joe has a lot of reasons to be happy. About a billion of them, in fact. You see, Joe's rich. Really, really rich. Joe's got his own bowling alley, his own cinema, even his own butler who is also an orangutan. He's the wealthiest twelve-year-old in the land. Yes, Joe has absolutely everything he could possibly want. But there’s just one thing he really needs: A friend. Review: A corny story with un-corny delivery! - I must admit the author quite surprised me - never really was much into children's stories for I find them dull and childish (maybe not the biggest issue given the target audience) however, I did enjoy Andersen’s fairy tales for they were beautifully crafted and quite intelligent in their educative message; on the other hand, I was afraid I am going to witness another 'The Elephant and the Balloon' attempt as known from Bernard and Manny! Was I mistaken, indeed! The story is of a bit corny nature (money is nice to have but won't buy you 'that' what you really need) ... but the difference when compared to the tons of similar stories out there is in its presentation - incredibly witty, funny deliverance when you can really feel the author did enjoy writing this one very much as well as you can glimpse at his life optimism and comedian talent behind (the book’s) every line - and surely appreciate it [the talent]. Definitely a good read for children as well as an adult (I am over 30 years old) who enjoy (or are looking for) a good piece of British* literature, easy to read with a heart-warming experience of intelligent structure and philosophical message behind. * I mentioned the above because my not being a native British citizen I am always grateful to be able to peek into various layers of the language, especially one which - unless you have lived in Britain (and went to a school there) - you would not have many chances to experience otherwise. I will definitely read more from the author! P. S. And the way he plays with the language, some words he uses (made up) really makes you happy about every penny spent. Review: Heart and laughs - great for discussions and to get reluctant readers reading! - This is one of my favourite Walliams' books, a rather sad story about a father and son missing their mum/wife, living hand to mouth and with handmade birthday gifts, trying to find happiness through wealth, but finding in the end it's their love for each other that's the most important thing. And of course, it's also hilarious - Mr Spud invents a wildly popular new loo roll (Bum Fresh - wet on one side, dry on the other) and he and his son Joe can light £50 notes on fire, they are that rich. Yet Joe isn't happy - he has everything except the one thing he wants... a friend. Insisting he enrol at a regular comprehensive school as just another schoolboy, he is going to discover just what friendship should be, the power of money, and what's important to him. It is also, of course, a very funny story, with a surreally disgusting school cook and her 'bat sick' menu, school bullies that nobody can tell apart (despite one being a girl and one a boy), and lots of wonderful lists. Walliams and Lucas have a ball with the voices in this audio adaptation (unabridged). It's a fantastic story to share with a child - in a classroom or bedroom, talking about buying friendship with money, bullying, love, parents, wanting to be rich - so much to discuss. Now we've read this, my son is keen to watch the BBC adaptation as well, which we will be doing. Just love the idea of this and Walliams' execution of it. ## Features - New Store Stock ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | 12,032 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 4 in Children's Books on Money & Saving 5 in Children's Fiction on Bullying 5 in Children's Books on Bullying | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 11,167 Reviews | ## Images ![Billionaire Boy: A book by David Walliams - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81mLDpbLy1L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A corny story with un-corny delivery! *by A***. on 4 December 2017* I must admit the author quite surprised me - never really was much into children's stories for I find them dull and childish (maybe not the biggest issue given the target audience) however, I did enjoy Andersen’s fairy tales for they were beautifully crafted and quite intelligent in their educative message; on the other hand, I was afraid I am going to witness another 'The Elephant and the Balloon' attempt as known from Bernard and Manny!
