![]() ![]() Our Truth Pixie has been living with her friend, Aada, for some time now and it is time to go to school again. I was a bit unsure about the whole bully thing, but I was hoping that would be handled nicely. I was delighted when I saw this book pop up at my library, I quite liked the first book which I read earlier this year. The Truth Pixie is back and this time she is at school with Aada! The quirky illustrations by award winning illustrator Chris Mould are as much a part of the story as the verse that accompanies them.Ī poignant tale with themes of bullying, hurting a friend’s feelings, being true to yourself, saying sorry and not changing to fit in with the crowd. The Truth Pixie Goes to School is a fun, enjoyable story told in rhyming verse. Aada soon misses her quirky best friend but has she lost her forever? The Pixie, rejected, leaves and goes home. Aada was embarrassed and wanted to fit in with the other kids so she turns her back on the Pixie. When they started school the Pixie was outspoken and everyone laughed at her for being different. ![]() But Aada had her best friend, the Truth Pixie, who went with her everywhere and when times were tough and Aada was sad the Pixie was always there to cheer her up. This is sad at the best of times but poor Aada’s Gran had died and her father had lost his job. She was sad because she was moving towns and had to start a new school. ![]()
