Thunder Boots

Trixie is the littlest (and loudest) resident of Primrose Tower - a happy bundle of energy who runs, jumps, and cartwheels her way into her flat. The other residents of Primrose tower even have a special nickname for her: Thunderboots!

When the time arrives to start school, Trixie is excited. She loves her new friends, teacher and learning lots of new things in lessons, especially P.E class. However, learning letters and writing comes much more difficultly for Trixie. No matter how hard she tries, the letters seem to dance off the page and she just can’t make them into words. As Trixie loses confidence, she grows quiet and loses her Thunderboots spark...

But with a little help, can learning get easier for Trixie and will she realise that it's normal for everyone’s brain to learn a little differently?
