This is a autobiography From when he was young all the way up to the end of secondary school.These were he's collection of his notes.There are some sad parts and some funny parts espaically when they put a dead rat in the gobstopper jar.Mrs pratchett finds it and shuts the shop And they think shes died from the shock.This story has lots of emotions I recommend this story for it is very funny.Also it has pictures of him for example When they had a school photo. Also Roald dahl Pretended that he was ill to go home Because he did not like the matron.I recommened it because it has mixed emotions.
