Toby's sister and baby brother love their schools - they smell
of paint and rainbows. Toby doesn't think he likes his new
school at all - it smells of ogres and he's lonely. He looks and
looks for friends but he can't find any anywhere. He finds an
alien, a mermaid, a dinosaur expert and a pirate, but no
friends! When his mum comes to pick him up he tells her the
sad news - but if he didn't make any friends then who is in the
playground waving at him..?
Rebecca Elliott's charming Toby books help children deal
with new and unfamiliar circumstances. In Mr Super Poopy
Pants, Toby got used to the idea of having a new baby
brother; in Missing Jack he had to come to terms with the
death of his pet cat. Now Rebecca is showing that going to
school isn't quite as scary as you might think, using her
unique sense of humour and style to create a warm and
comforting picture book, which is quirky and funny at the
same time.
