Mrs. Hickson is the school librarian at P.S 38.

Biography

At some point before or during 2010, Hickson became the librarian for P.S. 38. According to Nate Wright, when students are in the library, she does not want to see them acting idle. At one point, she sent Gina Hemphill-Toms to detention, and was the only teacher to do so to her.

Personality and Traits

Mrs. Hickson is some what strict and devoted to her job. She also has a good memory, as she never forgot a name, a face, or a book that was overdue. She was disdainful of "hanging out." She is skilled with pretending to be interested in what children are reading about. Still, she has never been "Godfrey mad" except when Nate destroyed one of her beanbag chairs in the library by jumping off a chair. According to Nate, she‘s usually nice, but gets upset when you drop something or make a mess, which might mean she has ataxophobia.

Trivia
