Learn How to Love Reading
Reading has been a passion all my life. When I was little,
my mother read to me. I consumed books growing up. Many nights
were spent hiding under the covers with a flashlight to finish
a book.
Gone with the Wind captured me at the age of 13, and my
parents still talk about how I essentially missed a family trip
to the beach. Scarlett and Rhett so absorbed me I resented
anything that took me from the hotel room and my book.
Reading is a part of my life every day. Sometimes the
newspaper will be enough, other times a book must be at hand
as well. Reading was more real to me than most things.
I was a teenager before becoming fully aware there were
people who didn’t like to read and, even worse, people who
couldn’t read. I can imagine a life without chocolate before
a life without books.
