Class is in session and Slate editor Allegra Frank is taking her seat! In “The Beeper Queen,” we get to see Helga’s relationship with her mom in a new light when Miriam takes over for Big Bob at the beeper store before the business gets the better of them both. Then in “Oskar Can’t Read?”, reading isn’t the only thing Mr. Kokoshka learns – he also learns some self-reliance! We also share our stories of finding our way in places where we can’t read the language.
