The Adrian Mole Diaries

Now available in one edition with an updated look: the agonizingly funny international phenomenon The Secret Diary of Adrian Mole, Age 13 3/4, and its equally hilarious sequel The Growing Pains of Adrian Mole.

The Secret Diary of Adrian Mole, Age 13¾ is an unabashed, pimples-and-all glimpse into the troubled life of an adolescent. Writing candidly about his parents’ marital troubles, the dog, his life as a tortured poet and “misunderstood intellectual,” Adrian Mole’s painfully honest diary makes hilarious and compelling reading.

Teenager Adrian Mole continues to struggle valiantly against the slings and arrows of growing up and his own family’s attempts to scar him for life in The Growing Pains of Adrian Mole. In between the ups and downs of his relationship with the divine Pandora and worrying that his genius is going unrecognized, Adrian Mole chronicles the pains and pleasures of a misspent adolescence.

Packaged together, these two classic books will appeal to readers young and old.
