Title: The Good, the Bad and the PSLE Author: Monica Lim Narrator: Chio Su Ping Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 4 hours 36 minutes Release date: July 8, 2019 Genres: Drama Publisher's Summary: To succeed in life, you must top your class, get Band One for school tests, and obtain four A stars for the PSLE. Or at least, that is the world according to Ling, a typical Singaporean mum who has made it her goal in life to help her children succeed in school. Ling's older daughter, April, has all the makings of a model student and looks set to ace the Primary Six national exams. In the meantime, Ling's younger son, Noah, is free-spirited and more interested in canteen food than what goes on in class. This (almost) kiasu mum records her journey diary-style, describing hilarious episodes involving crazy worksheets, assessment book overload and jittery parent-teacher meetings. Ling's humorous take on surviving Singapore schools will have you laughing and give you serious food for thought, all at the same time! © 2013 by Monica Lim. Published in paper format in Singapore by Epigram Books, recorded by Storyside 2019.
