Imagine a school so wonderful that your principal, Mr. Keene, thinks it's the best place on Earth. In fact, he loves it so much that he wants school to be open every single day of the year! At first, this might sound exciting, with more learning, more field trips, and more time with friends. But soon, the students of Mr. Keene's school start to realize that even too much of a good thing can be, well, too much. What happens when there's no time for playing, exploring, or just being a kid outside of school? It's up to Tillie and her classmates to come up with a clever plan to show Mr. Keene that while school is indeed fine, fine, fine, there's also a whole world of discovery and fun waiting beyond the classroom walls. This charming and funny story explores the importance of balance, free time, and the creative ways kids can make their voices heard.
