Dexter Procter the 10-Year-Old Doctor

Dexter Procter the 10-Year-Old Doctor

Adam Kay

Penguin Random House Children's UK
2025
pokkari
The highly-acclaimed, No. 1-bestselling children's fiction debut from Adam Kay - and soon to be a BBC TV special! It was clear from an early age that Dexter Procter was different. He started speaking at four seconds old. By the age of three, he had 87 A-levels, from Afrikaans to Zoology. And by ten, he was working as a paediatrician at Lilydale General Hospital. Despite a loving but annoying family and a couple of good friends (Rupi and Otto), Dexter’s always struggled to fit in. Add to this a mortal enemy (Dr Drake) and a major problem at his old school (all the teachers struck down with awful diarrhoea) – will Dexter be able to save his job, save the school and find his place in the world? (Spoiler alert: yes!) A laugh-out-loud new fiction series about the world's youngest doctor from the record-breaking Adam Kay and Henry Paker. 'Original, very funny, ultra-informative - and children will love all the disgusting parts.’ Jacqueline Wilson 'If laughter truly is the best medicine, book this hilarious appointment with Dr Procter immediately.' David Baddiel Adam Kay, Sunday Times bestseller, November 2023

In this deathly funny and brilliantly original mystery from Adam Kay, former doctor and BAFTA-winning author of This is Going to Hurt, a chaotic young doctor might be the only one who can catch a killer targeting hospital officials--if his investigation doesn't cost him his career first. When his toxic medical director dies of a heart attack, fellow doctor Eitan Rose smells foul play. Nobody else does, though, including some quite crucial players like the police and the medical examiner. So when another senior doctor dies, Eitan vows to uncover the truth himself. But having recently returned to work after time off for his mental health, Eitan's personal file is far from spotless. Despite his budding relationship with Cole, a handsome hospital porter, and reluctant comradery with his office mate, Margaret-with-the-cats, Eitan is quickly in over his head. And as his investigation spirals into pandemonium, his colleagues begin to question his judgement. Could a killer really be roaming the halls? Or is Eitan making a catastrophic mistake? This clever and fiendishly funny debut is filled with unforgettable wit, lovable characters, and plenty of twists--alongside texts, transcripts, medical reports, and all the evidence you'll need to help solve this particularly nasty case.

Do you ever think about your body and how it works? The human body is extraordinary and fascinating and, well... pretty weird. Yours is weird, mine is weird, your maths teacher's is even weirder. This book is going to tell you what's actually gong on in there, and answer the really important questions like: Are bogeys safe to eat? How much time do you spend on the toilet?

The story follows Amy on her funny, gooey and anatomically-accurate adventure through the human body as she discovers lots of facts about digestion.

All the information you need to set yourself up as a top doc without having to waste years of studying over big, unnecessarily complicated books and actual dead corpses. Have you ever dreamed of becoming a doctor? Of course you have, are you too stupid and lazy to go through the arduous training? Of course you are. This book is the answer to your prayers. Brilliant doctors Adam Kay and Stanley Tedson have distilled their many years of training into the very essence of what it takes to be a doctor - a big desk; an MRI scanner (made out of a washing machine and two lilos) and of course the stock responses and impressions of legitimate treatments for every kind of malady known to man. Not only are both authors qualified doctors but Adam Kay is also one half of The Amateur Transplants. As such he spends much of his time writing and performing extremely rude and outrageously funny songs and stand up.
