The school is oppressive and stifling, and Storm can’t understand why all the other children are doing exactly as they are told.

However, when Storm meets the rebel outsider, India, they
begin to unravel the mysteries of the School and together discover the strange secret in the basement that has all the children under its spell…

THE SCHOOL OF POSSIBILITIES has been published to huge critical acclaim. With its haunting mixture of reality and fantasy, Parkkola’s novel has a feel of Louis Sachar’s HOLES and Philip Ridley’s GRAFFITI KID.
