Charlie's School Bus - Charles C. Cheng - Bog

The author considered a school bus as a learning-mobile, a moving laboratory of humanity, and a meeting place for students, away from the classroom. Equipped with those concepts, this retiree took a trip down memory lane and recalled his stint as a school bus driver in a suburban New York. The result is a memoir that is anything but ordinary. The author has vivid recollections, fascinating stories, and beguiling folklore from various cultures. This memoir is more than a reminiscence; it is a curious amalgam of autography and story-telling. The author had inadvertently ventured into a new genre of literature that was little known. The book is like a gem hidden in a forest of books waiting to be discovered. In conclusion, the book is an interesting read for the general public; a good companion for school bus drivers, parents and members of the education community; and is an indispensable addition to the library.
