Dear Miss

Young scallywag Michael isn’t keen on going to school – as he informs Miss in this wonderful book of increasingly fanciful excuses! In letters, postcards, telegrams and notes sent from all sorts of exotic destinations, he comes up with dozens of rib-tickling reasons why he simply can’t make it to class. Perfect for reluctant readers, this is a delightfully funny and inventive celebration of a child’s boundless imagination, which gives the last word to a clever and very determined Miss!
