The day my school got famous

£7.99

Since Ferris Foster’s dog got famous, life has taken a surprising turn: Ferris’s new foster brother, Nile, has burst into his life with a BANG, making Ferris worry that his mums might give up fostering for good. Something HUGE, OLD and DANGEROUS has been discovered under Ferris’s school, causing it to CLOSE DOWN! (For now.) Ferris is still a cartooning genius, but between homeschooling and Nile’s dodgy science experiments, finding somewhere quiet to draw has become practically impossible. Ferris’ teacher presents the children with an arty competition, but can the boys put their differences aside, work as a team and win the once in a lifetime opportunity? Or will Nile’s obsession with experiments have EXPLOSIVE consequences?

A genuinely uplifting, heartfelt, inclusive and moving story, fizzing with mischief and humour – Ian Eagleton, author of Glitter Boy

Jen Carney weaves humour and empathy into every page! – Maisie Chan, author of Danny Chung Does Not Do Maths

Since Ferris Foster’s dog got famous, life has taken another surprising turn:

1. Ferris’s new foster brother, Nile, has arrived with a BANG, causing mischief wherever he goes!

2. An unexploded Second World War bomb has been discovered under Ferris’s school, causing it to CLOSE DOWN!

3. Ferris is still a cartooning genius, but between temporary homeschooling and Nile’s noisy science experiments, it’s practically impossible to draw anything!

When the headteacher sets the school a design challenge, Ferris realizes he MUST find a way to work with Nile. But can the boys put their differences aside in order to win the once-in-a-lifetime prize? Or will this partnership have EXPLOSIVE consequences?!
