Why is Supporting Link to Libraries a Priority for You? Because supporting children's literacy is critical in our community - reading empowers, it gives the imagination the flight every child deserves and it gives us all access to things that we can be and do and achieve. And because no organization is supporting children's literacy in our community with as much impact at Link to Libraries.

What was Your Favorite Book as a Child? As an Adult? As a child, I loved anything written by Enid Blyton. If I had to pick one, I would have to go with The Magic Treehouse Series. As an adult, I have recently loved The Midnight Library by Matt Haig and Sapiens by Yuval Noah Harari. I couldn't possibly pick a favorite adult book! I also very much enjoy several young adult authors including Lois Lowry - Number the Stars and Jerry Spinelli - Star Girl.

What is Your Favorite Reading Memory? Smelling the pages of the old books in my father's library when I was growing up - and then pulling one out at random and getting lost in it. 

How Does Reading Play a Role in Your Life Today? It connects our family - we do a family read with three generations! And it reminds me that there is always another story to unfold.
