Emma's Big Mess

Some mornings go exactly as planned. Emma’s does not—and that’s where the giggles begin.

First, milk splashes across the kitchen. Then Emma discovers that her school bag holds a banana instead of the things she needs. At school, the banana makes an unexpected mess, lunch brings a surprising crunch, and homework turns out to have a very unusual connection to Emma’s sandwich. Just when she thinks she is ready for the class photograph, one more muddle is waiting.

With Lily’s affectionate laughter, Mum’s warm smile, and Mrs Parker’s kind humor, Emma finds reasons to smile when her day goes sideways. Her cheerful adventures make a playful read-aloud for preschoolers and a lovely pick for families and gift-givers who enjoy funny school-day stories.
