Welcome to Big School.

Humza Khan - aka Little Badman, Eggington's greatest rapper - might have finally met his match.

Evil teacher geniuses and giant killer hamsters (see previous Little Badman adventures for details) are nothing compared to starting a new school.

He's already been out rap-battled by the school bully, laughed at by his classmates. Oh, and we haven't even mentioned the ancient magical orb causing havoc and very possibly leading to world destruction.

At least Humza has found someone to help with his homework. It's just a shame this friend isn't exactly . . . alive.

You've heard of Little Badman, right? No? Oh. Well. . . Doesn't matter. You will do one day. He's gonna be big.

Little Badman, aka Humza Khan, has saved the world TWICE.

So it's lucky when Humza and his friends narrowly avoid being hit by rock from outer-space. What does get hit is a box of delicious samosas, which turn . . .

Radioactive! Now the trio have superpowers, which is pretty cool. What's less cool is the giant hamsters on the loose. Looks like a job for Little Badman and his crew.

They've faced deadly alien slugs, killer aunties and double maths. Now, Humza Kahn (and his friend Umer, I guess) face something even scarier - Humza's dad! And he's fed up with the boys acting up all the time. So he's sending them away to a special summer school in Pakistan.

But here the two friends are about to learn that something very weird indeed is going on - someone has been messing with time!

The world may just need saving again . . .

Little Badman and the Invasion of the Killer Aunties
Humza Khan is the greatest eleven-year-old rapper Eggington has ever known: he is Little Badman and soon everyone will know his name.

The problem is, school has got really weird: one by one, all the teachers are disappearing and suspicious aunties are taking over. It isn't so bad though, Humza can still record his first song and the aunties are very generous with snacks.

But when they start to mess with his music, Humza has to get to the bottom of what's going on. With the help of his friends Umer and Wendy, Humza must hunt for the truth. Can he stop the aunties before they carry out their evil plan?
