Quick Overview
Here is a collection of stories about school life that will appeal to every kind
of school-goer. These are incidents from the author’s own life, when he was

field, and was known as the best cook among the Boy Scouts.
Read about beloved and eccentric characters like the strict Mr Oliver, Miss
Babcock, the school nurse, and the Principal who once went missing. Get the
shivers at the strange and wonderful happenings at school, from the lady in
white roaming the school grounds to the ghost who turned up in a bed at
the dormitory!

Ruskin Bond classics as well as brand new stories and is for every reader who
has enjoyed going to school or is in school right now.
