Mystery Reader #12: A Very Special Visitor

"I have 3 kids that all attend Lanesboro Schools.  I love to READ.  I grew up on a farm in North Dakota."

Our Mystery Reader was an extra special guest to our classroom today: Mrs. Schultz.  Back when we were working on our cookbook, we picked up a gift card to Pedal Pushers for someone we wanted to help.  This person was Mrs. Schultz who had been undergoing cancer treatment.

She asked if she could visit the class to say thank you for the gift and meet the students.  I asked her if she'd also like to be a Mystery Reader.  Mrs. Schultz is also a teacher, and I knew she would enjoy reading to the students.

Mrs. Schultz did so much more than read a story to us.  She helped us get to know her and her family, and she shared her story with us about finding out about having cancer and the books she read to her kids to help them understand that her hair may change, but her smile never would.  That couldn't be more true.  Mrs. Schultz is never without her beautiful smile!  Thank you so much for visiting with us today!
