Why "Book Bag" Blog?

When I was attending school (I won't say how many years ago!), we carried our books and homework to and from school in "book bags." Today they've been replaced by backpacks, roller bags and computer bags. Ours had a handle or occasionally an over the shoulder strap.

A new book bag and pencil case might be among the back-to-school items Mother bought us when school started. We carried home whatever books we were reading and those for homework, along with notebooks and pencils in our book bags. (The new pencil box stayed at school in our desk.)

So.....when I think about reading and books, my memories often go back to those book bags we used during my school days.

What better name for my blog than "book bag," when I want to share information about reading and writing for tots through teens and the adults in their lives?
