I attended Detroit Public Schools on the east side of Detroit until about 1969. The most exciting thing that happened during the school year, for me, was the week when the teacher brought in the small pamphlet of books that were available to purchase by me and my classmates. I have always been a voracious reader ever since I learned how to, so I alway enoyed purchasing those books over fifty years ago. Some of the books I remember purchasing was Encyclopedia Brown, Ivanhoe, and a Tale of Two Cities.

Amen! The day the Scholastic Books order came in was absolutely glorious. We got to sit at our desks and read in peace.
