When I first met Blanche Caffiere, she was the school librarian at Seattle’s View Ridge Elementary, and I was a timid fourth grader. Mrs. Caffiere pulled me out of my shell by sharing her love of reading. She asked me what I was interested in, and she found me books that were more challenging than the science fiction I was reading at the time. Then she made the time to discuss them with me. I learned from Mrs. Caffiere that my teachers had so much more knowledge to share. I just needed to ask. #thankateacher
