About this listen

The third Little Village School novel.

Summer has arrived in Barton-in-the-Dale and as a new term begins at the little primary school, it's not just the warm weather that's getting people hot under the collar.

Meetings with the teachers from Urebank School to discuss the merger are producing more than a few fireworks, a disruptive new pupil arrives, set to cause trouble, and a surprising staff love affair is exposed. There's also a big school production of The Wizard of Oz to organise as well as an impending visit from the Minister of Education.

Head teacher Elisabeth Devine certainly has her work cut out for her. And that's just some of the drama set to shake-up the village. Throw in a sprinkling of secrets, shocking revelations, old flames, new liaisons, psychics, weddings and misfortune...there's plenty to gossip about this term.

Lovely and very believable storytelling told by a master storyteller. Really moving in parts and yet such a light and warming touch

Wonderful storytelling

Yes I loved it and would even have enjoyed a bit more. Particularly sensitive to children's needs the author has fine understanding of young and old.
The story is slightly repetative, but its forgiven because of the fine charachters.
The narration is just perfect.
All round a lovely few hours of storytelling.

Quite lovely to listen to
