The Nicest Man I Ever Saw Outside Our School
A child recounts a kind man who stands outside the school at dismissal time. Dressed like a soldier with gold buttons, he guides and protects the children, holding the littlest girl’s hand, joking with the boys, and even helping her cross the street when it rains. The speaker recalls his gentle care and big presence.
