Rain SchoolIt 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. James Rumford, who lived in Chad as a Peace Corps volunteer, fills these pages with vibrant ink and pastel
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. James Rumford, who lived in Chad as a Peace Corps volunteer, fills these pages with vibrant ink-and-pastel colors of Africa and the spare words of a poet to show how important learning is in a country where only a few children are able to go to school.

My picky dog loves them.
Size: 3.5 Ounce (Pack of 2), Style: Chicken Chips, Size: 3.5 Ounce (Pack of 2), Style: Chicken Chips
I try to give my dog, whom I love so much, the healthies food and treats that i can. She is so very picky and it's difficult to find things she likes. She loves these treats and expectes one every morning. She litterally waites by the pantry door for one. The are healthy Human grate chicken chips. Makes me feel better about giving her a treat. I would Highly recommend.
