In this podcast episode, I talk with Thea Patterson, one of my former Hope College students! Now, she's a teaches sixth grade English and is sharing her expertise with our Big Read community. We talk about her love for literature and where it began, engaging with characters, books as windows and mirrors, and her book recommendations! We admire Thea's love for literacy and we cannot wait for you to get to know her through this episode.
