Product Description
A primary school Under Milk Wood!
Book Description
A fantastic book of funny poems having an irreverant look at just about every aspect of school - the head, the secretary, the dinner-lady, teachers, pupils, events in the school calendar (nativity play, sports day), school inspectors, parents' evenings and that strange smell in the corner of the infant cloakroom!
