A funny, atmospheric quest through a delightfully strange and spooky school all about finding your way, embracing the (VERY) unexpected and discovering that getting lost can lead to the best adventures of all...
When Grace's teacher, Miss Flytrap, asks her class, "Who knows the way to Mr Grimly’s classroom?" Grace puts her hand up straight away. "Me, Miss. I know the way, Miss!" But Grace is new to the school and she doesn't, in fact, know the way. Not one bit. She doesn't even know who Mr Grimly is…Grace’s simple errand becomes an epic journey down atmospheric corridors, through a foggy playground, up a bell tower and even ... across a zip-wire! Her expedition is full of twists, turns and unexpected discoveries including an enormous library and a school kitchen FILLED with cakes!
This fun read-aloud book is ideal for children finding their feet in unfamiliar environments, whether at school or beyond!
Written by the best-selling author of Uncle Montague's Tales of Terror, Chris Priestley, brought to life with incredible cinematic flair by Mariachiara DiGiorgio, winner of the Carnegie Shadowers' Choice Awards for Illustration.
