The Growing Pains of Adrian Mole by Sue Townsend

The Growing Pains of Adrian Mole by Sue Townsend is the second book in the series. I'm feeling a little nostalgic. The book was actually better than I remembered since there was some subtext I hadn't noticed the first time. it continues the story of the dysfunctional Mole family described by their oldest child in diary form. Very funny. Also a very good look at 1980s England.

Recommended.

I've also reviewed the first book in the series The Secret Diary of Adrian Mole, Aged 13 3/4.
