Laugh-out-loud hilarity with two-colour illustrations from the incomparable Pamela Butchart – three stories of mayhem and chaos where pupils” imaginations run riot…

Year 2 at Wigglesbottom Primary is never boring. They don”t expect to run a race against a chicken at Sports Day, or eat green toxic slime at lunch (it”s halloween custard!) or that Anne Marie Moor is an ant queen and one of her subjects is called Lady Gaga. BUT THEY LOVE EVERY MINUTE OF IT!

Perfect for newly-independent readers, these are more funny school stories from award-winning Pamela Butchart, brilliantly illustrated by Becka Moor.

Biographical note:

Pamela Butchart (Author)
Pamela lives in Dundee with her baby boy and their two awesome cats, Bear & Carlos. If she wasn”t working as a writer and a teacher she”d like to open a luxury hotel for stray cats.

As a child, Pamela was lucky enough to grow up in a house full of pets and go to a primary school where lots of spooky and weird things happened (well, in her imagination at least). As a student, Pamela”s student jobs included: fishwife, teaching basketball in America, phlebotomist and Artist Liaison for a (really bad) Abba tribute band.

Her top selling stories include The Spy Who Loved School Dinners which won the Blue Peter Best Story Award and My Head Teacher is a Vampire Rat which won The Children”s Book Award. Two of her books, Petunia Perry and the Curse of the Ugly Pigeon and There”s a Werewolf in My Tent, were shortlisted for the Lollies – the Laugh Out Loud Awards.

Becka Moor (Illustrator)
Becka Moor studied Illustration at Glyndwr University in North Wales. She has since moved back to Manchester where she works under the strict supervision of Miss Daisy and Bella, her two cats. Affectionately called Ray-Ray and Cinderbella.

Excerpt:

One day when we were all getting ready for Sports Day, Theo Burke said that he thought the SCHOOL CHICKEN was WATCHING US.
We all thought that Theo was IMAGINING it. But then when we were doing our WARM UP STRETCHES Megan Mc Nally pointed at the chicken and said, “LOOK!”
And that”s when we saw that the chicken WAS watching us. And it looked a bit like it was doing STRETCHING, too!
We watched the chicken as we stretched our arms to the left.
And the chicken stretched its WING to the left!
Then we stretched our LEGS to the right.
And the chicken stretched its little chicken leg to the right!
So that”s when Jayden King did a bit of a DANCE THING to see what the chicken would do.
And we all GASPED because the chicken did a dance as well!
None of us could believe what was happening because the chicken was obviously COPYING US.
