A hilarious collection of poems from the creator of the best-selling DUCK IN THE TRUCK series. We learnt about acorns and planted a tree Nigel fell over and bashed up his knee Rosie Rawlings cried at play - Her pet rabbit's run away. In English, Miss Chadwick was in a bad mood. At lunchtime we all made a mess with our food. And you'll never guess what happened to Claire, She leaned back too far and fell off her chair! Jez Alborough's hilarious rhymes describe a typical day at school, as seen through the eyes of various pupils.
