The Worst Class in the School
Illustrated by Stewart Curry
Described as a collection of rhyming stories this book falls into the genre of wacky, 'this is how kids are' type of paperback poetry books. Unfortunately the levels of humour and original ideas are extremely low. All I can say is 'must try harder'.
