About the author
Pamela Butchart
89 books116 followersAs 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. Now, when she’s not writing or going out and about meeting readers, Pamela teaches philosophy to teenagers.
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 Peri and There’s a Werewolf in My Tent, were shortlisted for the Lollies – the Laugh Out Loud Awards.
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.

It’s a hillours look at primary school life, and working in one I see all different madcap things.
As soon as you open the book you get illustrations of the class, and I particularly like that the teacher is the only one with blue lips.
It’s a fun book to read and the illustrations are perfect.
There are laugh out loud moments and you will be disappointed when you finish the book.
Again this is ideal for newly independent readers
