This will probably give away my age, but I loved Trixie Belden mystery books. That’s the very first books I remember reading. As I got older I progressed to Barbara Cartland and Harlequin romances.

My fourth grade teacher read "The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe" aloud to us every day after recess... I think that was the book that turned me into a lifelong reader.
I read aloud to my kids when they were young; their favorites were Harry Potter, Inkheart by Cornelia Funke, and the Sisters Grimm.

I remember my 4th grade teacher read Little House on the Prairie to the class. I was enthralled - we all were. I was already a voracious reader, but this was a very different type of book for me.

Due to dyslexia and learning disabilities, reading as a child was daunting, as a adult it is a pleasure📚😊

Matilda by Rhoal Dahl but since that was being read to... I guess Harry potter since that was the first BOOK book I ever really read.
