Publisher's Synopsis
These 7 stories are taken from the authors primary school years. They are sometimes humorous, but also illuminating. They document some memories and the fear he lived with for example, how it was a lightbulb moment when he realised not all children were hit as he was. There are some teachers he encountered along the way who changed his life. Mrs Battleship is a tribute to the few people, especially teachers, who acted at different times to protect him and champion him.
