Riderwood Elementary's media specialist in action
I recently wrote a story about Bob Hallett, a dynamic, quirky library-media specialist at Baltimore County's Riderwood Elementary who was recently diagnosed with a rare leukemia. A few years ago, Hallett helped invent - and then play - a superhero called the Red Reader, who was part of a motivational reading show on the school system's Education Channel.
The folks at the Education Channel were kind enough to point us to one of Hallett's performances, this one on a show called Math Homework Helpers, in which he regularly gives voice to a puppet named Professor Q.
Just thought I'd share.

I had the pleasure of meeting this man and could not help but be impressed by his enthusiasm for reading and teaching children.

Arin,
Thank you so much for doing this story. Bob Hallett is my brother in law (Debby is my sister) and the outpouring of prayers, support and love towards our family has just been amazing.

If laughter can cure this disease I know he will recover because he's created so much laughter,enjoyment, and learning in his years as an educator and entertainer. May the laughter and love of the huge number of people that care about Bob bring him joy and a full recovery.
