2008 My Brother Reading To Me
My older brother would always read me stories and my favorite one would be Barney. I was obsessed with Barney so he would always read me the same Barney book everyday before I went down for a nap, when it was time for bed, or when he was trying to get me to calm down. And only he was allowed to read to me, I didn't like when anyone else besides my brother reading to me. -

This is when I started kindergarten and learning the alphabet. I was in the dual language program at my elementary school and I was able to recite the ABC's in English and in Spanish. -
2009 Started With Picture Books
In kindergarten I also began looking at picture books. My teacher would have me explain what I thought was happening in the story. At first I tried reading a book with words but I wasn't quit ready for that so my teacher started me with picture books that had no words. -

2022 Reading to 1st Graders
