Synopsis

Mademoiselle Charlotte, the new teacher, is unlike any other. With her large hat, crumpled dress, and habit of talking to a rock, she initially seems odd to her pupils. However, her unconventional methods—like measuring the classroom with cooked spaghetti and sharing captivating stories—soon make learning an exciting adventure. This delightful tale, illustrated by Tony Ross, will make readers wish for a teacher as imaginative and inspiring as Mademoiselle Charlotte.
