Book Overview

A fun and humorous story written in rhyme, following Miss Ilham's and her goofy adventures. When Teacher Ilham wakes up late, she quickly gets ready and sets out on her motor scooter to go to school. The zipper on her bag gets stuck but because she is late, she places her open bag in the basket behind her and zooms to school. Along the way, passersby warn her of the flying papers but Miss Ilham disregards them thinking they are referring to the autumn leaves. When she arrives at the classroom, she is surprised to find that the flying papers were the exam papers. She rushes to retrieve them and with the help of the policeman, she is able to, but will she be able to hold on to them for long?
