We often hear from children who are having a good whinge about those terrible teachers at their school. This is a story about a teacher named Mrs Caddiddlehopper who tells what it is like for her every day. It is about how she is feeling very harassed all day by the antics of her wayward young students. As she imagines all of the wonderful things she’d love to do to “ruin their day”, instead of her days always being ruined by those rascally young children, she comes to the realisation that it will all be for nothing because the very next day they will all be in class behaving exactly the same.
