Bruce R. Foster, a semi-retired educator has been fortunate enough to be a teacher, vice-principal, special education co-ordinator, and principal throughout his six decade career. He always found his greatest joy was interacting with the students and their families. As such, Bruce R. Foster has incredible TRUE experiences to draw on from his varied educational experiences. He weaves a tale for his readers in his Kool Kids Books that honors the lovable nature of children and envelopes humanity, humor, and the fascinating, yet highly unpredictable realities of being an educator. Like a teeter totter on the playground, his books are both whimsical, humorous and action-packed at the same time.

Mr. Kool the title name of the main character in his books, comes from one of those exact experiences when he encountered a couple of third grade students on the playground. When asked if they remembered his name, one curtly stated, ” Mr. Whatever!”

The second one politely said, ” It is Mr. Kool with a “K” because you are so kind to kids.

One thing that is certain, is his belief the principals need to have a presence while serving in the privileged role of elementary principal. Upon reading his books, you will quickly note that he is active at the buses, playground, and in the classrooms. As a matter of fact, he will do almost anything to avoid being in the office doing desk work.
