SCHOOL INSPECTOR CALLS

Every book tells a story. And the 70 titles in the "Pocket Penguins" series are emblematic of the renowned breadth of quality that formed part of the original Penguin vision in 1935, and that continues to define our publishing today.

Together, they tell one version of the unique story of Penguin.

Gervase Phinn's fond memoirs of life as a school inspector have shown his homeland of Yorkshire in a new and often hilarious light.

Penguin have published each of Phinn's four books and in "The School Inspector Calls", he reveals how even a jaded school inspector can be left speechless by straight-talking children.
