About It Click here to return to the TNFB home page. It is time once again for school bells to ring, mothers to cheer, shopping centers to have sales, and kids to get ready to learn whether they want to or not.
Schools are back in session.
Even if I am over fifty, I can still remember the sound of a new notebook clicking shut and the smell of a classroom that has been closed all Summer. No matter how modern or how new a school building is, after one year of use they all develop the smell of pencils, art supplies and kids. I guess I was a different kind of kid because I loved school. Don't get me wrong. I also loved Summer vacations and holidays, but school was not all that bad to me.
