About
In this delightful collection, Ruskin Bond gathers a series of warm, funny, and gently spooky stories drawn from his own schooldays. As a shy, quiet boy in boarding school, Bond preferred the library to the football field and was known as the best cook among the Boy Scouts. Through these charming recollections, readers meet unforgettable characters such as the stern Mr. Oliver, the kind but eccentric school nurse Miss Babcock, and the Principal who mysteriously went missing.
From classroom mischief to curious nighttime encounters, the stories capture both the comfort and chaos of school life. Ghostly figures roaming the grounds, strange visitors in the dormitory, and odd happenings around campus all mix with heart-warming friendships, quirky teachers, and the small triumphs of growing up. Bringing together beloved classics and brand-new tales, this collection celebrates the laughter, fears, friendships, and memories that shape every school-goer's experience.
Perfect for readers who have ever loved-or survived-school.
