Early September. It's time to go back to school. I never liked it, but curiously now my little nieces are looking forward to it. Things that happen. What you have to keep doing, without or with school, is reading. And why not do it on him? These are 5 titles of children's and youth literature (now and forever) -and a touch of adults- to make that return more bearable.
The weirdest school in the world - Pablo Aranda
Intended for readers From 8 years, this book tells us about Fede's school, a school that is the rarest in the world. Is named TV: Techno School of Foreign Languages. What makes it special is that when a child leaves, he goes with the first parent who has arrived, and he has to treat him as his own child and bring it back to school the next day. So curiosity is served. Esther Gomez Madrid put the illustrations.
Teacher anecdotes - Carlos G. Costoya
It is two books in one. The Part is a selection of teachers' own experiences from various centers in which they analyze the situation of their profession and education in general in our country. Testimonials on all the hot topics ranging from school violence to bullying, from authority to immigration in the classrooms or from school failure to the vocation of the teacher.
La second It is a new anthology of nonsense with anecdotes collected by primary and secondary teachers in private and public schools. And that puts the comic tone and also revealing of how the educational playground is.
A cat at school - J. Patrick Lewis
Santa Clara and Malory Towers - all courses - Enid Blyton
And how not to mention these two classics par excellence from the quintessential youth writer who is the British Enid Blyton. Some of my best school memories are associated with the library at my school where, on Friday afternoons, I would go through the titles of his that were available. Yes, I really liked them The five, But my weakness they were always the adventures and misadventures of these English girls in their schools: Santa Clara and Torres de Malory.
Those two compilations of all courses in each one of them are now little jewels that I treasure on my shelves. I have reread them as an adult and I still love them. Of practically repeated invoice although their protagonists are different, these two series, written in the 40s and 50s, they were already classics in those distant late 70s and early 80s.
Now there are new editions with somewhat more childish illustrations -or more in keeping with the times-, but the essence remains the same. These are their titles:
