SUPER MISS
All this because of that mysterious statue found by brand-new primary-school teacher Josie! Suddenly she’s acquired superpowers: she can talk to animals, and shoots across the sky like a green whirlwind. As „Super Miss“, she rescues animals in need of help. At the new school, she tries to hide these abilities from the children, but it doesn’t take long for the fourth-graders to discover her alter ego. When a young tiger disappears from the city zoo, the super teacher and the kids must join forces to solve the mystery. Will they be able to save the animals and prevent a greater disaster from occurring? An imaginative and humorous animal adventure based on popular children’s books by Janneke Schlotveld.
