Aprašymas

After class hours, or whenever I was free, I would slip into the

library and sit amongst these hundreds of books, reading them,

arranging them, cataloguing them or just being with them. Here I

made many lifelong friends.'

There are many who as they grow older, long to reach out to their friends

from school. And then there are others who are lucky enough to have

friends from school as a constant presence in their life. As we grow older

and embrace (or at least try to) the myriad aspects of adult life, we often

like to look back at our school days and reminisce about 'simpler times'.

The bonds we make in school are some of the most cherished relationships

of our life, and are often what brings us solace on a hard day.

In My School on the Hill, Ruskin Bond brings us a collection of short stories

that remind us of the beauty, the excitement, the joy, the confusion and

the love we felt as schoolgoing children. From cricket matches in random

library-this book has something for anyone looking for a moment of joy
