Tatu and Patu at the Kindergarten

Tatu and Patu have won a lottery prize: a free day out at the spa! However, they confuse the signs, and instead of the Funday Fitness Centre, they find themselves in the Under Fives Club, just next door.

So where are the swimming pools, the all-over massage tables, and the health treatments, the boys wonder at first. They realise that they have ended up at the daycare next door, and start to devise different plans with the help of the other kids to get into the spa.

But after mudbaths in the sandpit, a work-out on the climbing frame, some drawing and painting, and rehearsals for the spring pageant play – for which they get to write the plot – Tatu and Patu are convinced that going to daycare is quite as much fun as a day at the spa.

Tatu and Patu at the Kindergarten is a delightful account of an ordinary day at the daycare, written and drawn with hilarious blunders classic to the adventures of the Oddville boys.
