Life at Wigglesbottom Primary is often lived on the edge. Is there a shark in the local swimming pool? YES! Can playing with the class parachute make you invisible? YES! Are there dinosaur bones buried in the playground? YES! What are 2F going to do about it all? Have a lot of fun!

Laugh-out-loud school-based fun in two-colour stories, perfect for encouraging independent reading!

Three short stories in each book keep just confident readers engaged while lively two-colour illustrations bring these hilarious early readers to life and perfectly bridge the gap between picture books and chapter books.

I love this book series and the short stories within them. I enjoyed The Parachute of Invisibility the most from this book.

I would recommend this book to someone else because it’s really funny and my best character was Jayden

This was a great read. My favourite part was when Mr Hobart dived into the pool. The children thought there was a shark in the pool because Joel Jack told them he has been bitten by a shark in their swimming lesson. My favourite character was Sunita Ram because she looks cool in my opinion. I would recommend this book because it is funny and like my school. It has 3 stories in 1 book.

This was a really funny book because at their swimming lesson at school, they first thought it was a shark in the pool, then they thought it was a piranha in the pool and then they realised it wasn’t either. It was actually the colour of a piranha on a plaster that had fallen off one of the children.
