Author Archives: Helen Kossler

Helen Kossler loves reading aloud to her grandchildren and is not ashamed to admit that she almost always likes the book better than the movie. She has been buying, borrowing, begging and stealing (well—not stealing on purpose, more like forgetting to return in a timely manner) books to read her whole life. She currently teaches Special Education in a high school in Chicago and reads every chance she gets.
