There’s a Snake in My School!

　　學校裡怎麼會有蛇？因為那是開心果米蘭達的寵物蛇！

　　★英國知名暢銷童書作家－大衛威廉（David Walliams）天馬行空的奇想文字
　　★絕佳拍檔，天才藝術大師－東尼羅斯（Tony Ross）瘋狂世界的繽紛描繪

　　米蘭達是個獨特的小女孩，她喜歡與眾不同，她不會規規矩矩地穿好衣服，在課堂上的回答也總出人意料地幽默風趣！常逗得班上同學哈哈大笑。

　　今天是「學校寵物日」，老師說可以把自己的寵物帶來學校。校園瞬間變得好熱鬧，有沙鼠、金魚、肥貓、烏龜還有長得很高大的狗……但是米蘭達帶來的，是一隻巨蟒，名字叫小潘潘！

　　原本驚聲尖叫、瘋狂奔逃的孩子們和寵物們，瞧見小潘潘變身為攀爬架、溜滑梯、消防滑桿，紛紛湊上前一同玩樂。

　　但是當大家在操場正玩得不亦樂乎時，校長波蘿女士衝出來把所有寵物都沒收了！

　　米蘭達好傷心，因為校長把所有寵物都鎖到了失物招領櫃，但卻把小潘潘給丟到了垃圾桶......

　　下課時間一到，米蘭達就偷偷摸摸地跑到校長室，沒想到一開門就看見小潘潘坐在波羅女士的位置上。她們拿著鑰匙趕緊將所有寵物們都釋放，學校所有的孩子和寵物們再次在操場上一同歡樂！

　　但是，校長波蘿女士不見了，她的行蹤... 可能要看看小潘潘的外型來判斷了！
