It's not easy being a 10-year-old rabbit girl. Charlie's parents and her strict teacher, Mrs. Lynx, are constantly finding fault with her: "Pay attention! Stop daydreaming!" So it's just as well she has a second life as a famous pirate that she can escape to when things get too much. In her fantasy world, Charlie experiences amazing adventures and fights against her enemy (who looks surprisingly like her teacher). Luckily, Charlie also has her best friends at her side: the hardworking and slightly shy duck Muriel and the cuddly bear Frida, who would actually love to be a ballerina. Charlie is struggling with endless homework, exams, bad grades, and forgetfulness. But then one day in the Lost Forest she meets an unusual forest dweller who knows the value of daydreaming and lets her in on an intriguing ancient secret ... This beautifully illustrated storybook about school, friendship, and family relationships is both thought provoking and inviting - and can help to initiate conversations between children and parents about living with ADHD. It is also ideal reading for classrooms. A book to be read by or to dreamy elementary school children who would like to learn: * How to concentrate better when learning at home and at school * Why dreaming is also valuable * How to discover their own strengths * How to be better organized and forget things less often
