The second book in a readaloud series about the enchanting circus family Petrelli
Hooray, it's the start of a new school year! Elisa and Jonas are looking forward to being in Class 1. But the 'starting school party' gets pretty chaotic: the Petrelli family turn up with all the circus animals, who go charging onto the stage along with the first-graders! When the teacher is ill on the first day of school, Oskar Petrelli steps in to teach the class. The children think this is wonderful – what could be more fun than learning maths using tasty gummy snakes? Or jumping
letters in the sports hall under Leora's supervision? Lorenzo the parrot also teaches them some colourful curses.
This can't go on, thinks headteacher Mr Jansen! And when he hears that the school inspectors are on their way, he tells the Petrellis they have to leave at once. But it's too late – the inspectors are already at the door, and Oskar and Leora Petrelli must do everything they can to prove that the circus is still the best school of all!
