But in researching that time for SCHOOLED, I feel as if I got “inside the Day-Glo.” I saw that a lot of that world was weird and sometimes silly – it certainly provided me with a whole lot of opportunities for humor. But beyond the jokes, beyond the craziness, I realized that the much of the hippie idea – the principles, if not always the reality – was genuinely good. We could learn a few things from what hippies tried to do in back in the 60’s, just as the students of C Average Middle School learn from Cap Anderson.<br /><br />In the spirit of Capricorn Anderson, I wish I could come to Pine Grove and individually thank by name everybody who participates in Bookapalooza, but I guess that’s just not possible. I’ll be there in spirit, though – in virtual tie-dye, corn-husk sandals, peace signs.<br /><br />I hope you enjoy SCHOOLED!<br /><br />Gordon Korman<br /></i></i><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7393826755552691513-3143753242327276783?l=pinegrovelibrary.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>S.
