The co-authors provide a vivid portrait of school life, celebrating the joys and challenges of growing up. Ultimately, Backbencher is a nostalgic tribute to the unforgettable memories that shape our youth.

“Sometimes it’s better to bunk a class and enjoy with friends, because today when I look back, marks never make me laugh, but memories do,” said our best President ever. Back Bench Student is one such book that makes you travel back in time to priceless memories of our school days where we all hid our memories that makes us cry out of happiness. Those classes we bunked, teachers we had crushes on, girls we fantasized as our girlfriends, friends who taught us what love and sex are, our first beer bottle, first smoke, first night out and last time we were all together doing such crazy stupid stuff. Estimating how fast you are gonna complete this book is difficult, but once you are done, it’s pretty certain that you are gonna call all those idiots you miss today. All those married uncles, bastards settled out of the city, state and country, dickheads who don’t call anymore but you know who would be thinking of you at least once a day. So be prepared for some high-end nostalgia. Welcome home…

The term "backbencher" in this book refers to all those individuals who are not performing at their best potential, just like some students are backbenchers in the classroom. To me, being a backbencher means not giving your best, trying to withdraw; not seeing the problem eye-to-eye, and running away from it. An attitude of "okay" vs. perfection. An attitude of escapism does not yield the best results. One has to be a warrior to face the challenges. A leader who can lead his life, a captain of his own ship called life. This book is an attempt to transform from mediocre to excellent performance From the life of a backbencher to that of an achievement.

Having seen what being left out is like, children become agents of change, convincing their teacher to let them build a buddy bench. A school playground can be a solitary place for a kid without playmates; in one survey, 80 percent of 8- to 10-year-old respondents described being lonely at some point during a school day. Patty Brozo’s cast of kids brings a playground to raucous life, and Mike Deas’s illustrations invest their games with imaginary planes to fly, dragons to tame, and elephants to ride. And these kids match their imaginations with empathy, identifying and swooping up the lonely among them. Buddy benches are appearing in schoolyards around the country. Introduced from Germany in 2014, the concept is simple: When a child sits on the bench, it’s a signal to other kids to ask him or her to play.
