Mrs. Miller is Caitlin’s middle school teacher who organizes the pen pal program that pairs up Caitlin and Martin. Though Caitlin and Martin’s correspondence soon leaves the classroom, Mrs. Miller represents how one teacher can make a big difference, sometimes with a lesson that might at first seem small. Her Zimbabwean counterpart is Mrs. Jaira, who plays a similar role in Martin’s life.
