ReplyDeleteMy earliest memory of reading was when i read the book the three little pigs, and i only remember this because i got a new toy for reading the book the whole way through. Before i could read on my own my mom would read a different Dr. Seuss book to me every weekend, i loved the way Dr. Seuss wrote books and became inspired by his words, though confusing and strange they were full of meaning. In fact I was so into Dr. Seuss that i have read nearly all of his books. My favorite book though is the one my mom gave me when she found out she had cancer, its another Dr. Seuss book, "Did i ever tell you how lucky you are?" this is my favorite because it was the right words at the right time.
ReplyDeleteLike any kid i would rather have been playing outside or watching tv than reading, yet i was good at reading so often enjoyed a good book. My teachers have always read to my classes from what i remember, my favorite year though was when we had Mrs. Yount, she read us the Goosebumps books.Besides the Dr. Seuss book the only book that has made a difference in my life would be a squires tale, it gave me hope that any one can do anything. sadly now i dont read for pleasure, in fact i cant remember the last book i sat down and just started to read.
