Anyone have suggestions for a 10 year old who likes comic mischief? He's a huge fan of diary of a wimpy kid series but his reading level has moved beyond that. He's also really enjoyed the wild robot series, Matilda, and the skunk and fox books.

Thanks in advance!

Edit: thank you all for your great recommendations. I'm going to check them all out with him tonight!

  • Unicorn Rescue Society series by Adam Gidwitz
  • Ben Yokoyama Cookie Chronicles series by Swanson and Behr
  • Wings of Fire series by Tui T. Sutherland
  • Wow in the World books by Mindy Thomas and Guy Roz (they have a companion podcast that’s absolutely bonkerballs as well!)

All of these have a nice mix of comedy and mischief/adventure that he might enjoy.

Came here to say Wings of Fire. Absolutely fantastic series. Thanks for the other recs I'll check those out.
