It Wasn't Me

Reviews
‘An appealing, funny story of oneupmanship against the odds.’ — The Sunday
Tribune

‘Ms Mansfield has a very accurate ear for classroom banter. Mr Abbott, the
teacher, is a wonderful creation. The book should appeal to readers of the nine
to eleven age group, particularly boys.’ — Books Ireland

‘Creina Mansfield is a marvellous author for children of age 10+ and this
offering will keep them entranced.’ — Woman’s Way Woman’s Way Product
Description

When Ronan, the school bully, turns his attentions to Jack, Jack knows he has
to think fast to save his skin. He comes up with the idea of a twin brother, a
tough, fearless, not-to-be-messed-with twin brother who, he says, attends a
different school. But when the other boys begin to doubt his claims, Jack’s
twin needs to put in an appearance. The situation snowballs as Jack struggles
to keep up the lie of being two people at once. What will happen when the other
boys, and Ronan, find out he has deceived them? This work offers an original
and very funny take on the difficulties of school life with an unusual and
sensitive twist at the end.
