A laugh-out-loud tribute to little kids everywhere who would prefer not to leave home on the first day of school
The animals are marching dutifully to school – but not Pascaline. It doesn’t matter who is going. She knows exactly what she doesn’t want. ‘Never, not ever!’ she shrieks loudly. So loudly, in fact, that something amazing happens – and it changes everything...
Charming and laugh-out-loud funny, this irresistible first-day of school saga is sure to be a repeat read.
