Description

Ever-punctual Anna Gain is never late, and she's certainly never late for the school bus. Every day she catches it in perfect time. But not today. After a series of absurd events cause Anna to miss the bus, she's transported one minute back in time - only to be stuck re-living the same sixty seconds again ... and again ... and again ... Is fate trying to teach Anna a lesson? And will she ever escape?

Reviews

"This is a book that should be a hit with even the most reluctant reader ... Guy Bass has taken a scenario that is instantly recognisable to children and twisted it into a hilarious and chaotic adventure" -- A Library Lady, Blog "An absolutely brilliant concentrated twist on Groundhog Day ... Exceptionally funny" -- Lily and the Fae, Blog "With lots of maddening minutes to enjoy, Bass's puntastic one-liners, and anarchy antics galore, young readers will return to this brilliant story again and again!" -- Lancashire Evening Post "Groundhog Day for kids - a clever, canny read" -- The Great British Bookworm, Blog
