false 1347087 I've loved to read since I was a very little girl, I would get into my Dad's books and read in whatever spot he had bookmarked so I learned some awfully big words before most kids.
I love the feel, the smell, the look of books. I have installed this love for reading in all 3 of my kids. I have an extensive childrens section in my little library for my grandkids. You can travel the world in a book, be anyone you aspire to be in a book, do things you could only dream of by reading a book. What a wonderful world a book brings to your door.
