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 / empty fields, to Boy Scouts adventures, to finding peace in the quiet school / library-this book has something for anyone looking for a moment of joy/
