Anne Fine - Next to Alice
A day at school turns out better than the narrator had imagined. Short story from Barrington Stoke's catalogue for "late" readers, with two enjoyable main characters and a subtly anti-sexist flavour. (It's possibly implied to be a secondary school, although that isn't spelt out.)
Delighted to have a wee visit from Helen Peters today, signing a slew of her Nosy Crow and Barrington Stoke (the specialist for dyslexia-friendly publishing) books!
