Following on from the success of Kamikaze Mouse, the ‘Headteacher Poet’ Duncan Thompson brings you a second collection of poems based on the strange things he’s heard and seen in his own school, as well as the strange things he’s been asked in school assemblies in other schools. 


Challenged to come up with poems on dead hedgehogs, throwing sweetcorn at people and who is better, Ronaldo or Messi, he triumphed. Could he write poems about a child getting their hand stuck in a watercooler, a school being closed because of a bee invasion, or even about a Vaquita (which research showed was a rare type of dolphin)? Yes, of course he could, and the results are inside this book. 


Do you want to know what happened when the dinosaurs attacked the school? Would you like to find out what happened to Mary Anning’s dog? Have you heard of the granny who had toothache even though she had no teeth? 


These mysterious await you inside, and many more!
