Information

Dear Mr Seed, I am sorry that are Jack was not at school yesterday. He put on such a groth spurt in the night that nun of his clowthes fitted im next morning so I had to take him to the shops. Mrs R. Twenty-five years ago, newly qualified teacher Andy Seed moved to a remote village in the Yorkshire Dales with his wife Barbara, anticipating breathtaking views and the simplicity of the countryside. The picturesque scenery did not disappoint. But life as a primary school teacher was anything but simple. With a classroom full of colourful characters whose capacity for misunderstanding was exceeded only by their enthusiasm and their ability to leave him incredulous, Andy fell in love with teaching and with village life.

'heartwarming and hilarious' -- Daily Mail 'The author cleverly weaves the story of his first year teaching at the school. A truthful, wry, amusing memoir - the ideal gift for teachers, friends and family.' -- The Teacher '... this touching, evocative, and often very funny book has a timeless message' -- Times Educational Supplement
