'[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 review After 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.

Phinn has a comfortable niche that he never strays away from - heartwarming tales, a cast of characters that seem caricatures and a love of the Yorkshire Dales - it has served him well and will continue to do so. This book is no exception, the stories are feather light and there is lots of repetition of descriptions yet it works so well. This is the sort of book I like to read just for the way that it requires no effort and is gently amusing, Phinn is the Herriott of education! ( )
