An uplifting story about an extraordinary teacher nun with a passion for motorbikes!;Dark, grey, dilapidated buildings, leaking rain...Sister Vincent's first impression of St Agnes in the Pasture convent school is hardly inspirational. But then to straight-laced Mother Margaret Aloysius, her nuns and three teenage girl pupils, the new arrival is something of a sight herself in silver wellies and pink glasses, a box of tools under one arm.

And for Helen, Sara and Isobel it's a real education!;Dyan Sheldon's books include "Dreams of an Average Man" and "My Life as a Whale'. She has also written "Tall, Thin and Blonde", "Harry and Chicken", "Harry the Explorer" and "Harry's Holiday", "Skywatching" and "A Night to Remember".
