Without someone to guide, inspire and care, where would some of the world's greatest, leaders, celebrities and stars be? Maya Angelou, the highly renowned author whose work has been read and idolised by both children and adult alike may never have been able to produce the stunning pieces of literature that she did if it weren't for her neighbour turned teacher, Mrs Flowers. Mrs Flowers encouraged her to read, taking her to the library and telling her to read every book within the small room. As she read, Angelou found a love of poetry, a love that was deepened as Mrs. Flowers had her come to her house and read to her, so that Angelou could really learn to love poetry as she spoke it aloud. – Source: Online Universities
