bitofabookworm 's review for:
I did a placement in a junior school last year as part of my TA training.....so I definitely recognised a few of the characters and school based anecdotes - and - as a parent to two children who have left primary school I recognise some of the stories about the parents and children too haha!
I really enjoyed the more personal experiences of school life itself, the anecdotes and opinions on actual experiences, the funny stories from the school day, the honesty about the difficulties that teachers face - and especially what teachers really mean when they describe your child a certain way.
There were parts that I don't think were really needed, just personal preference but I found some of it a little indulgent, and I needed less 'bants' between to two narrators -I really wanted it to be a little more like Adam Kay's 'This is Going To Hurt' which it wasn't quite.
All told a great little book, I got a bit fatigued reading it all in one chunk so think it would be better to dip in and out of inbetween reading something else.
Thank you Netgalley for the gifted copy of this in exchange for an honest review.
