ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — I came for an interview eight years ago bearing a grocery bag of books my children had long outgrown for a little girl with a love of reading. It was at the Joy Junction homeless shelter, and I can still remember the 6-year-old’s eyes widening and her smile spreading, revealing the recent loss of a front baby tooth, when she saw what was in the bag. I can still remember her joyful squeal as she reached in for a book, clambered into her mother’s arms and drifted away into whatever world that book took her.
