Billionaire boy

The story follows a 12-year-old billionaire Joe Spud who lives with his billionaire dad, who made money out of Bumfresh toilet paper, Len Spud lives in a very large country home. The two of them have everything they could ever want, such as an orang-utan butler, a bowling alley, a cinema, and servants. Joe is depressed, sad and unhappy when he doesn't have any friends and leaves a wealthy children's school to join a local comprehensive. There he meets another 12-year-old, Bob, with whom he becomes friends. After the cross-country run (where Bob and Joe come last and second to last, respectively), the two go to Raj's store, where Raj reveals Joe's secret. Then they encounter Dave and Sue Grubb, two bullies whose main target is always Bob. The Grubbs dump Bob in the bin. Joe then discovers that Bob's father died and offers the £50 note that he had offered him to come last in the race. Bob refuses it, however. The next day, to escape the Grubbs, Joe and Bob enter the school canteen, where the food is disgusting. Mrs Trafe, the canteen lady, serves them uncooked jacket potatoes. Later that day, in History class with Miss Spite (or The Witch) Joe realizes he has forgotten his History homework, and Miss Spite gives him 15 minutes to retrieve it, and Joe calls his father. Len Spud arrives in a Bum Air helicopter, unveiling Joe's secret. Joe is chased by everyone and ultimately arrives to Miss Spite five seconds late, and she puts him on litter duty; Joe tries to explain, but Miss Spite doesn't listen and puts him on litter duty for a month. During his litter duty where Bob helps him, the Grubbs arrive to reveal Joe's deal with them. Bob, angered, calls Joe a spoiled brat and leaves. After the half-term holidays, a new girl, Lauren, arrives at the school and all the boys have their eye on her, even Joe. Soon Joe and Lauren become best friends. Until Joe comes home one day and finds out that his Dad is holding a massive party and then Sapphire spurts out that she had seen Lauren on television before. Soon enough, Joe found out that his dad had paid Lauren to be his friend, and decides to run away. Raj, the kindly newsagent, finds Joe sleeping in a skip and talks over with Joe about his situation. Joe goes to Bob's home to apologize. Bob accepts but soon finds out that Mr Spud had lost his fortune as everyone is suing him because Bumfresh is making everyone's bottom go purple. Joe returns to Bumfresh Towers, and his father suggests that he should save something from the house before the bailiffs take everything. Mr Spud is surprised when Joe returns with a rocket made out of loo roll because he says it was "made with love". Later, Joe's father marries Bob's mum, and the story closes.
