Illustrated by Chris Smedley
A gloriously funny distortion of today - though set thousands of years ago. Things, it appears, haven't changed that much. The children still solve life's problems with effortless ease and the adults still bumble around making a lot of noise and getting nowhere. The primary school myths and mores are revealed in all their simplistic glory, including the 'Please Miss' tradition. Quite the most hilarious story I've read for some time and looking so deceptively easy to read.
