What is How to Cross the Road and Not Turn Into a Pizza about?

Simon is learning how to cross the road safely, along with the rest of his class. Miss Talentino explains the rules, but Simon soon discovers that getting things wrong outside the classroom could have much more serious consequences than making a mistake in a lesson. With plenty of lively humour and a memorable pizza comparison, this story helps children understand why careful road crossing matters. Will Simon and his classmates remember their instructions before facing the busy road for themselves?
