If you could have every student at TCS read one book, what would it be and why?
Wander by R.J. Palacio. It is an emotional story that makes you both laugh and cry, and offers some important life lessons to readers both young and old alike. Most of all though, it leaves you with a sense of hope, and reminds you how far a little bit of kindness can go.
If you could take any famous person to dinner, who would it be?
J.K. Rowling.
What is the one thing that you learned as a child that you carry with you to this day?
Be as optimistic as you can, as often as you can.
