When every oopsie is followed by an uh-oh, little Ferret's embarrassment grows. How will she survive the day at Forest School
Ferret strolled to school in style,
All silky fur and cheerful smile,
Until she tripped on someones duffle
And caused herself a slight kerfuffle.
From there her day gets worse and worse.
Embarrassment is Ferrets curse!
Pencils spilled. Stubborn glue.
Toilet paper on her shoe!
There is one thing that helps her through.
Surprise! Shes just like me and you.
Ferret trips while getting off the bus, makes a gigantic glitter mess at craft time, urgently has to pee at recess, and gets toilet paper on her shoe! But when others in the classroom goof up in equally embarrassing ways, Ferret is relieved to discover that nobody's perfect.
