Good Bye Mr. Chips & Other Stories

Super coze.

I know the story, but I cried anyway What is a life well lived especially for an educator This book answers the question What is bravery This book has that This is a timeless story of love, duty and sacrifice And also expect to cry.

This is an amazing book A long retired teacher sits back, and reflects on his life as an educator The memories come flooding, both good and bad, as he reflects on the transient nature of memory I literally could not put this down, and read it in a night.

Mr Chips, an English schoolmaster, looks back on his life and the students that made an impression on him He was well liked by those around him, and loved the work that he was blessed with It made me think of some of my favorite teachers that I had, while I was going to school.

I really enjoy this novel, but frankly I cant help but see Robert Donat s face or hear his words while reading it The memory of that classic 1939 film colours the enjoyment of this novel for me.

Mr Chips is a very endearing character Made me think of all my great teachers and hope they re as content with their lives as he was.

A lovely, old fashioned story of a beloved teacher in a boys school in England I enjoyed rereading it The movie was good, too.
