' [Gervase Phinn is] a worthy successor to James Herriot, and every bit as endearing. ' - bestselling author Alan Titchmarsh' A shining light in our dark days' - 5 STAR reader reviewAfter an eventful start to his first ever teaching post in the sleepy village of Risingdale, Tom Dwyer is hoping for a bit of calm. Nursing a broken heart after a romantic disappointment, he just wants to keep his head down and get on with his job. But it is not to be. A beautiful London artist sets tongues wagging when she moves into the village, and her precocious yet frail son is in Tom' s class. On top of that, his colleague' s malicious ex-husband is back, determined to create mischief, and a tragedy on one of the winding country roads sends the village reeling. And all this alongside a class of children who still seem to know more about farming than fractions. With its colourful mix of characters both old and new and its many laugh-out-loud moments, Tales Out of School is a warm, humorous portrayal of life in a small Yorkshire village. Readers are loving TALES OUT OF SCHOOL:' Loved it. So easy to read, lovely story, unforgettable characters. ' - 5 STARS' Brilliant!' - 5 STARS' Could not put the book down. Gervase Phinn is an expert story teller. ' - 5 STARS' Such
