Elspeth Hart and the School for Show-offs is the first adventure featuring the fabulous Elspeth Hart, a modern heroine with doodles on her trainers and unstoppable determination.
Can you imagine never being allowed to play outside, dear reader? How about sleeping in a wardrobe every night? That’s what life is like for Elspeth Hart.
Ever since her parents were tragically washed away in a flood, poor Elspeth has been forced to live with her disgusting aunt, Miss Crabb, in the attic of the Pandora Pants School for Show-offs. Elspeth spends her days sweeping up mouse droppings, washing filthy pots and dodging Tatiana Firensky, the most horrible show-off of all.But what Elspeth doesn’t know is that things are about to change.
A fast-paced and funny story from a fresh new voice in children’s fiction, Elspeth Hart’s quirky adventures will delight fans of
David Walliams, Lemony Snicket and Roald Dahl.

I really liked this book. It is fiction, my favourite person is Elspeth because she the main character and is the one how comes up with the idea of getting out of the school. I would recommend it.

I did not like this book because it was a bit sad and a bit scary. My favourite person is Elspeth. I would recommend this book to someone else.

It was very good. My favourite character was Elspeth. Most of the show-offs were mean so I didn't like them.

It was to easy for me as I’m ten so I’d recommend it for 6+ and over. I didn’t find it that interesting but it had a good plot. I wouldn’t recommend it to 10 year olds my age.
