We would get around on a mat and sit inside a circle. The teacher would often read stories during that time hence it was called story time. There were many other books that were read during that time but this is one that I remember. -
I started reading picture books by myself. It is surprising now that I think about it but I had a whole shelf of just children books at home. I had a few of these on the shelf and they I liked them the most. They also caught my eye. -
I started trying to read larger books but didn't stray away from the theme of them having photos. Those kind of books interested me because I liked books which were not just filled with words but also had illustrations. Captain Underpants was also literally a superhero which wore underpants which was funny to little me. -
They had so many books of Geronimo Stilton. Every book it was something new but they were always doing something cool, funny, or interesting. This one was the first one I read which is why it had an impression on me. -
In 2nd grade I started reading larger comic books like diary of the wimpy kid. I knew I started straying from little kid books with photos or which was what I thought because it was black and white. I enjoyed these books so much I ended up getting a do it yourself one where you could draw your own photos, answer questions, and make your own comic strips and story. -
I didn't usually read books like this but I took a liking to it. This one specifically I think we had to read as a class assignment and write an informal essay on it. Since we didn't know how to. I did take it up on my self to continue to read this book series though. -
The teacher inside fourth grade said we were getting to grown for comic books and had to begin reading books without pictures and all words. They also had to be 200 pages or more. I took an interest to Greek mythology during a history lesson. So this was such an eye opener when I first saw it. It was in his shelf. -
I read the first Harry Potter book of the series in 5th grade, but I didn't finish the series until about 7th grade There were also so many books I would see inside the elementary school library that I wanted to read that it made me just prolong finishing the series. -
I started looking into more books with more than 200 pages. I was especially interested in adventures and genres closely knit to it. This was one of them. There are more books in the series but unfortunately I only read around the first 3 or 4. -
I was really into fantasy and adventure which I mostly read. After this while it wasn't fully a dystopian society it also introduced me into books of that setting which I started to read. -
This was approximately around the time Covid hit, so I ended up being able to order these books off Amazon because most places and libraries were closed. I got the whole series but unfortunately some are lost. I was able to read them all though -
Coincidentally, all the stories I have read have had twins which happened to be one boy and one girl. It was fictional and books played a big role in its making including this one. -
Personally and I still do believe reading Romeo and Juliet in 8th grade is an achievement. We had to read it in old English in class. Then when we went home if we didn't understand it then we would have to read the modern English then. This had me prepared so I did not struggle when I read it in 10th. -
This book really ended up taking a dark turn. When I first thought of the name of the book animal farm I was convinced it had to be some kid type of story but I was wrong. We even got to watch the movie in class after which I thought was pretty cool. -
A book on the Salem which trials. That was just a topic in history that interested me. That how would someone really just call someone a witch blatantly. Reading this really brought more clarity and I can also see how petty people back then were too. -
This was the book I read for summer reading. Had around 500 pages which is why it surprised me with how long it took me to finish. I was thinking it would take me a very long time.
