You just know a book is going to be funny and provocative with a title like Please Don’t Tell My Mum That I Have Become a Government School Teacher—She Thinks I’m Still at Law School. But it’s more than that; it’s poignant and heart-breaking, too. Following the first two years of law student-turned-teacher Harry Mann’s new career, this novel has its roots in a raw kind of reality that exists all too often in the government school systems everywhere. Think of this book as Up the Down Staircase meets Blackboard Jungle meets To Sir with Love, all with an Australian twist. You’ll laugh, cry, and care deeply about everything that happens to Harry, his students, and his fellow teachers at Cutler High.
