Anyone have suggestions for a 10 year old who likes comic mischief? He's a huge fan of diary of a wimpy kid series but his reading level has moved beyond that. He's also really enjoyed the wild robot series, Matilda, and the skunk and fox books.

Thanks in advance!

Edit: thank you all for your great recommendations. I'm going to check them all out with him tonight!

Unicorn Rescue Society series by Adam Gidwitz
Ben Yokoyama Cookie Chronicles series by Swanson and Behr
Wings of Fire series by Tui T. Sutherland
Wow in the World books by Mindy Thomas and Guy Roz (they have a companion podcast that’s absolutely bonkerballs as well!)

All of these have a nice mix of comedy and mischief/adventure that he might enjoy.

Came here to say Wings of Fire. Absolutely fantastic series. Thanks for the other recs I'll check those out.
