This is a thoughtful, funny and hugely enjoyable read for all children about changing schools, new beginnings, community, empathy ... and a horse that eats sausages. Fully illustrated in black line art, this gently humorous read with a sprinkle of magic and featuring a neurodivergent main character is perfect for all children aged 7-11.
