Have you ever heard the quote "for whom the bell tolls"?  Or "no man is an island"?  Have you ever thought about what they mean?  Maybe you have a teacher like Todd Farrel who asks the kids to ponder questions like those.  Mr. Phillips encourages the kids to think about things.  And Todd does just that.  He begins to think about God and prayer and super heroes and girls.  And he begins to ponder "what is normal"?  What do you think he'll find?
