“No more pencils no more books….” This little ditty is still commonly heard in classrooms around the country as the school year comes to its long-anticipated conclusion.
The children race home in joy and with a sense of triumph.
For weeks they have been relating to each other all of the great and marvelous plans they have mapped for every second of the much-awaited summer vacation.
For days each child has impressed his or her friends with richly illustrated illusions of how each and every day of the summer break will be filled with excitement and adventure.
