Roberta's family move to a new house so she has to change schools. Regent Primary she'd always been the one everyone liked and trusted whatever would they do without her musical talents? So she wasn't prepared for the hostile reactions from the pupils at Clipper Primary, especially Slade Bendix and a new teacher who calls her 'madam'. However, Roberta's mother has some good advice which helps her find the inner strength to overcome the problems she's faced with. A sensitively written story for solo readers from around eight.
