This and That: Random Thoughts and Recollections by Bel Kaufman
By Bel Kaufman
Here and there, at times, a piece of writing through Bel Kaufman, bestselling writer of Up the Down Staircase, would seem in a newspaper or journal. In those journal articles, Kaufman wrote approximately matters of the day and shared attention-grabbing or a laugh stories, regularly with prepared observations from her lengthy existence.

Now, for the 1st time, Kaufman selects her favourite essays from a number of decades—dating again to 1967—and locations them side-by-side during this humorous, irreverent, and beautifully pleasing collection.
