Splat’s class prepares to sing on Parents’ Night, and he is described as very nervous.
Splat is unhappy when his mother says Spike will join the camping trip; the story concerns whether they may become friends.
Splat becomes unhappy after losing games and considers playing by himself, before finding a way to have fun with friends.
Some children may notice Splat’s nervousness about singing, frustration when games go badly, a bicycle tumble, an accident involving a television, or unkind behaviour between characters.
This is a grounded book brief while Suitabook strengthens the analysis: the book’s treatment of its main themes is not yet firm enough; some draft conclusions still depend on unresolved evidence.
