Determined to find him, Seb’s search uncovers an even darker reality.

Most people only know one London; but what if there were several?
Kell is one of the last Travelers - magicians with a rare ability
to travel between parallel Londons. There's Grey London, dirty and
crowded and without magic, home to the mad king George III. There's
Red London, where life and magic are revered. Then, White London,
ruled by whoever has murdered their way to the throne. But once
upon a time, there was Black London...
From million-copy bestselling author David Baddiel comes a
laugh-out-loud story for readers of 8 and up that takes you on a
roller-coaster ride of fame and friendship… Nothing extraordinary
has ever happened to Billy Smith. In fact, every single thing about
him is ordinary, including his name. But when a documentary crew
turns up at Billy’s school to film the new TV series School Daze,
everything changes. Billy shouldn’t stand out: all the other kids
are much more interesting than him. But when remixes of his boring
class presentation go viral, Billy finds himself accidentally an
overnight star. With his friends Bo and Rinor by his side, his life
turns into a whirlwind of red carpets, TV shows, albums and even
the possibility of meeting Sunshine De Marto – the coolest girl
on the planet. But as everyone knows, fame comes with a price…
The Boy Who Got Accidentally Famous is an epically entertaining
tale, brought to life with illustrations by the brilliant Steven
Lenton, which asks the question – what if everyone suddenly knew
your name…?
