We were chilling out in class. Children were colouring the title pages of their autobiographies and chatting quietly to each other. Suddenly I heard a peal of laughter from across the room. One of the girls called out,
“Ms. B, S just said the funniest thing. And it’s true!!”
“So what did you say?” I asked S, who was sitting there looking bewildered at the raucous his comment had instigated.
“I just asked why Israel was bombing the Gaza strip, if they want to keep it.”
“Ms. B, don’t you think S should be in charge of the world from now on?” T chimed in.
Well, yes T, I do think so.
