I read my books aloud before they were published.
I was an only child; I didn't have a sister, or sisters.
When I was in the first grade I was afraid of the teacher and had a miserable time in the reading circle, a difficulty that was overcome by the loving patience of my second grade teacher. Even though I could read, I refused to do so.
I grew up before there were strict leash laws.
I wanted to be a ballerina. I changed my mind.
Don't stop now. Go ahead! Be readers all of your lives. And don't forget, librarians and teachers can help you find the right books to read.
