Listless Monday, Back to School Edition

Listless Monday was inspired by both Amanda at A Bookshelf Monstrosity's feature Books by Theme and Court at Once Upon a Bookshelf's Listed feature.  Be sure to check out their lists!

(Yes, that apple is as big as my face.  No, it doesn't have much to do with back to school.  But, it is an apple...)

Ah, it's that time of the year again.  Back to school time.  It always makes me think pencils and notebooks and clothes shopping and the dreaded homework.  Fortunately, I'm coming back to school now as a librarian and not a student.  However, I threw together a list of books where a large part of it or an important part of it takes in school.  Whether that be a boarding, a regular old public, or a wizarding, these kids are all dealing with the social, emotional, and academic challenges of school.
