THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER

The side-splittingly hilarious and heart-warming book from your favourite teacher duo and hosts of Two Mr Ps in a Pod(cast)

Remember the distant days of lockdown and those futile attempts to homeschool distracted, disinterested kids?

Parents rejoiced to send them back to school, while teachers prepared to face them all again … Five. Days. A. Week! Coming out the other side of the pandemic years, podcast sensations Lee and Adam Parkinson – aka the Two Mr Ps – bring you the most hilarious, ridiculous anecdotes from inside our primary schools.

Join in on the classroom antics as they share the unexpected pitfalls of online teaching, all the reasons you need a strong stomach to take on Early Years and why not every household item makes a suitable Harry Potter wand …

Fantastic listening.

As an ex pat teacher now living in Australia, I could relate to so much of this. Thanks Lee and Adam for making my drives to and from school the last couple of weeks such a funny, relatable experience. Hope there’s going to be yet another book!

Outstanding listen to realities of being a teacher today

Yet again, these boys have summed up the hilarity and the heartbreak of being a modern day teacher. Despite living in Australia, these points and stories felt so close to home. Teaching is an extraordinarily hard job and it truly takes a village to raise these kids. It is so great to be on the positive end of a book about teaching. Thank you so much glad for a hilarious read.
