#24 -Rain School James Rumford


Summary: It is the first day of school in Chad, Africa. Children are filling the road."Will they give us a notebook?" Thomas asks. "Will they give us a pencil?” "Will I learn to read?" But when he and the other children arrive at the schoolyard, they find no classroom, no desks. Just a teacher. "We will build our school," she says. "This is our first lesson."
