Katie Blake was a great blessing in the lives of my 3 older children and so many others. She read rhymes to those who could not read... yet and taught them and brought them so far on the road to literacy. My children said their favorite times in the library were when she read, "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe" by C.S. Lewis. THank you Katie.... you caught alot of people with your kindness.
