Today a y11 came to see me. I taught her in y3/4. She wanted me to sign her shirt and gave me a card with the nicest message. It helped me remember, we do make a difference.

A close-up photo of Andrea Junker is above a wall of library shelves filled with books; and, an open book lies on a tabletop beneath a card containing the quote:
"If you're afraid that books
might change someone's thinking,
you're not afraid of books,
you're afraid of thinking."
