ABSTRACT Poppy Cross is a whimsical North London teacher with a smile on her face and a song in her heart, facing every challenge and conundrum in her life with a cheerful demeanor prone to drawing the ire of colleagues and students alike.

Nominated for an Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay.
