The seventh book in the brilliant Roald Dahl Funny Prize winning BARRY LOSER Loser series. Perfect for readers aged 7 years + and fans of Diary of a Wimpy Kid, Tom Gates and Dennis the Menace. It’s only a few days into the half-term holidays and Barry's dad has already had enough of him! He’s packing Barry off to Pirate Camp, the same one he used to be sent to every year. Barry’s not impressed – he’s not a baby anymore, so why should he have to go to a camp for kiddywinkles? But horrible things are afoot at Pirate Camp – it’s been taken over by the villainous Morag, and now its future’s in doubt. There’s only one thing to do: Barry and his new friends Sally Bottom and Renard Dupont have to uncover the hidden treasure of Mogden Island … Don't miss the other hilarious books by Jim Smith: I am not a Loser, I am still not a Loser, I am so over being a Loser, I am sort of a Loser, Barry Loser and the holiday of doom, Barry Loser and the case of the crumpled carton, Barry Loser's ultimate book of keelness, My mum is a loser, My dad is a loser and Future Ratboy and the Attack of the Killer Robot Grannies.

I loved the book but it was a bit too much because millions of people are like wanting to just watch TV but some people don’t want to watch TV all day . It was fiction. My favourite person was Barry because he is really funny. I recommend this book to someone who loves reading long books.

I liked Sally , Barry and Renard the most, because they were very funny and the drawings were very funny to they made me laugh out so loud/hard that I got in trouble for being loud. I rate this book 10,00000 out of 5. This is my new favorite book series. Lot of love, Lashana

It was an okay book. It would be better if the words were more animated. I liked Barry Loser the best because he was funny. I would maybe recommend this book to someone else. Phoebe.

His friends came over and they all bounced on the bed which was funny. But dad didn't like it and sent him to pirate camp. It was funny and full of adventure.
