Title: Charlie Morris’s Speedy Goes to School Heads to the 2026 Beijing International Book Fair

Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, 21st May 2026 - The mystery begins before dawn, when a giant soft pillow lands outside the chicken coop with a note attached. Curious but unable to decipher the message, the animals of Corn Crib Manor gather to solve the puzzle. The mayor forms a committee, Swayback the horse attempts to draw letters in the dirt, and Speedy decides to venture beyond the barnyard in search of answers. Her journey eventually leads deep into the forest, where she encounters the wise old owl Solomon and discovers the value of learning to read and write.Blending humor, adventure, and gentle educational themes, Speedy Goes to School introduces a lively cast of memorable animal characters, including Kernel Korn the rooster-mayor, Taxi the Billy Goat, and Solomon the owl, whose repeated “Who? Who?” becomes a playful refrain throughout the story. Morris combines read-aloud storytelling with lighthearted whimsy that encourages young readers to remain curious and engaged.At the heart of the story is a simple but meaningful message about literacy education: learning takes effort, but the rewards are worth it.

Solomon’s introduction of the “four R’s”—readin’, ’ritin’, ’rithmetic, and recess—captures both the fun and uncertainty children often associate with school for the very first time.The book also reflects Morris’s personal inspiration for the series. He began writing the Speedy stories for his grandson, Jaxon, to capture the imagination of young listeners with mystery, comedy, and memorable animal characters. Illustrated by Julie Tomlin, with cover design by Mimi Snyder, Speedy Goes to School...
