Daniel Pennac in conversation with Michael Rosen about his prizewinning book 'SCHOOL BLUES'. In French with translation by Sarah Ardizzone.

Daniel Pennac has never forgotten what it was like to be an unsatisfactory student, nor the day one of his teachers saved his life by assigning him the task of writing a novel. Haunted by memories of his own turbulent time in the classroom, Pennac serves up much more than a bald analysis of how young people are often failed by a faltering system.
