Bill's New Frock (6 Copies) Pack

One morning, a horrified Bill wakes up in a girl’s body! He is sent to school in a frilly pink frock with fiddly shell buttons, and finds that life is suddenly very different. The school bully whistles at him instead of kicking him, and – not being a ‘big strong boy’ – he isn’t allowed to lift and carry. His schoolwork is supposed to be ultra neat, and (worst of all!) he gets cast in the school play as Lovely Rapunzel, who never gets to say anything! By the time Bill gets home, the pink frock is covered in mud, and – thank goodness – he will never have to wear it again!

• A body-swap story that is both perceptive and funny

• Explores school life and gender roles in a comic way

• Anne Fine has won the coveted Carnegie Medal twice

• She served as Children’s Laureate from 2001 to 2003

Supplied as a pack of six copies.
