This story from out local paper is a good one. The boy wants to go to the Wildernes Center!

My Favorite:
When he sat down and the board continued its discussion, Rowan started sniffing and snuffling. The sadness of not getting to visit the Wilderness Center, to play with insects and touch snakes and tiny wild birds, to examine rocks and soil the way only third-graders can, just came bursting through. He laid his head down on his father’s lap, resigned, perhaps, he wouldn’t get to go after all.
