A change in classroom seating arrangements challenges old habits and leads to a new friendship in this funny new school story from award-winning author Anne Fine.
At first Ben doesnt want to sit next to Alice in the classroom. Shes scary and tells him off for his squiggly drawing and poor handwriting. She even points out his bad table manners. But when Ben starts to take Alices advice, he realises that she might have a point and discovers that sitting next to her isnt so bad after all.
