The Day School Began was formally presented to the buying public on December 22, 2003 when the publisher, University Press PLC, hosted a formal book launch at Kakanfo Inn, Ibadan Nigeria.

Thirty Nine (39) pages long, the book takes us on a classic "whodunit?" journey, with Adam Johnson as our guide.

It describes how an otherwise ordinary day, at an ordinary school and at the start of a new school year, gets turned upside down by an uninvited guest or guests.

Suddenly, the previously worrisome concerns of an eight year old, like his mother starting a job as a teacher in his school and the teasing he expected from it, are no longer as important as they seemed just that morning.

Solving the case of the uninvited guest or guests becomes very important and consumes Adam and his circle of friends lives through the end of the story.

From the creative mind of young girl, this is a beautifully illustrated and well paced book that will be enjoyed by children of all ages. // Read Book Excerpts
