Debbie Alvarez, Beaverton school librarian and Battle of the Books booster, dies at 42
For Debbie Alvarez's friends and admirers, there's no better way to honor her than by reading and sharing books.
"The magic of story meant so much to her," Mio Debnam, a Hong Kong children's author who befriended Alvarez through the Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators, said by email.
