Is it her small imagination? not sure. she never reads a book unless she has to. :(<br><br>my son loves books, but is struggling to read on grade level in third grade. he reads s.l.o.w.l.y.--too slow for his quick mind and avid imagination. so it's hard for him to stick with it. <br><br>i hold out hope that one day they will get lost in a book...in the meantime, I commend and celebrate their efforts and try to provide them with books they can't put down. :)<br><br>that was long...I'm wordy this morning...yikes!dawnhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09325309991210190396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4419239976631731952.post-44068238492949325042009-11-17T09:30:37.174-05:002009-11-17T09:30:37.174-05:00My comment not so much about this post, but that l...My comment not so much about this post, but that little jewel I see in your left side bar...your very own little Beyond Grace button!!

Literally. I almost feel bad telling kids to put books away in class since it's so amazing that they're reading.... so I'm glad to know there are two more kids in the world who are loving the worlds that reading open up. :)Bethhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08459760495338493222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4419239976631731952.post-56984714618431164012009-11-17T13:56:40.598-05:002009-11-17T13:56:40.598-05:00What a blessing to have readers in your midst.What a blessing to have readers in your midst.A Little Of This And Thathttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01727194212928446402noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4419239976631731952.post-91631186596716353582009-11-17T14:16:57.173-05:002009-11-17T14:16:57.173-05:00I love your stories.I love your stories.Boy Crazyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05378413620649405525noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4419239976631731952.post-2173473118469196432009-11-17T17:19:03.198-05:002009-11-17T17:19:03.198-05:00A love of reading is one of my most important goal...A love of reading is one of my most important goals as a mom.<br><br>So far the little one loves books and I really hope it continues.Khttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05602481165732790955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4419239976631731952.post-70181349420117706902009-11-17T18:57:03.510-05:002009-11-17T18:57:03.510-05:00I'm with them.

I don't remember) where someone suggests a teenage boy go to a public library and the boy is absolutely astonished to learn that the libary will let him take all.the.books.he.wants.for.FREE.

He is a little copy of who I was at that age.
