What a treasure! I remember the first time I met “The Red Desk.” It was Honors American Literature with Mrs. Schreck, and she quickly reminded me of the childhood love I had for reading. Mrs. Schreck loved teaching, which made us love learning; her devotion to her calling was contagious. I am over twenty years removed from her classroom, and this book transports me back there in a way only fond memories could. Thank you for sharing your thoughts with me, Mrs. Schreck. You’re an absolute treasure.
