Why am I passionate about this?
As a child, I fell in love with picture books and the magical, whimsical worlds they opened! I recall snuggling up and listening to these tales being read to me. Later, after a bit of a struggle, I learned to read myself. From there, there was no stopping me. My library card was my most treasured, most loved possession!

As a former teacher and now great-grandparent, I treasure the opportunity to usher children down the rabbit hole of reading!
