Content

Mr Simbaroi, the majestic lion, is the new director of the Boarding School of Evil Animals – and he’s terribly strict: any student who fails in a competition will be kicked out of the school! Noël and his teammate Mikaere give it their all because neither of them wants to return to his old, dreary life. But then a traitor deals them a terrible blow.

About the Series

Enter the Boarding School of Evil Animals in the Secret Islands. Only the best of their species are accepted here: regal leopards, poisonous scorpions and savage sharks. However, special boys like Noël are being accepted as well, provided they pass the tough entrance exam.
