Friends Friday - Mrs. Olsen

Submitted by susan.bird on

It’s Friday and we are highlighting our fabulous librarian, Mrs. Trisha Olsen.  Mrs. Olsen makes library fun. She helps the kids find books to read, teaches them how to use a library and reads them stories.  We are grateful to have Mrs. Olsen here at Brookside.

What do you love to do on the weekend: “On weekends I love to be with my family and friends.  I enjoy going camping and being outdoors. I love to go to work on the farm with my husband.  I love to snuggle up and read a good book and find fun things to do in the library.”

If you could have lunch with any fictional character, who would it be? Thor

Who was your favorite teacher and why?My favorite teacher was Mrs. DeHart inf 2nd grade.  She was my teacher and the principal at a very small school.  She made me feel like I was the most important person and smartest student.  I'm sure all the kids felt the same way.”

If I had a $1000, I would buy a plane ticket to Hawaii.  I have never been to Hawaii and would love to see those beautiful islands. 

Who or what inspires you?Marjorie Hinckley inspired me to be a better mother, wife, and person.  I loved her humor and down to earth advice.”

What is your favorite thing to teach every year?My favorite thing to teach students is to love books and introduce them to new books.”

What is the best thing about your job?The best thing about my job is hands down the students.  I have learned so much from them. I love showing them books to read and finding lessons to reinforce fun in learning.  I also love reading children's books so that is a bonus.”

Favorite Quote: The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you'll go.  Dr. Suess
