Early Reading Memories I do not have an excessive amount of reading memories to jot down for this assignment, however I can think of a few.

The rhythm and pace that follows his books made me giggle as child and want to read more. I will begin this essay as little munchkin, then progress to an elementary school reader, and finish off as the young adult I am today. I will always remember my mother and her reading, she was fascinated!

In class we all as a whole had to read, "The Lord of the Flies", "The Catcher in the Rye", and "Macbeth". All of these books were amazing to read but when it came to writing the essays for them, I believe that my favorite and most interesting was "The Lord of the Flies", which is one of my favorite books to this day. "The Lord of the Flies" had such a brilliant story line and it kept me interested as I read on.

Soon she had published her very first book called When Charlie McButton Lost Power, and it was instantly a favorite for elementary school readers.

Reading is Key Reading is about learning. We all learn our ABC’s in kindergarten and learn the sound the different letters make. Every word is different and enticing when we are young children learning to read because we finally know what signs say and how to spell our names.

I know for a fact that my Grandma is also what makes reading so easy for me. Almost as if it’s a second nature! Whenever I become stuck or draw a blank when writing an essay I like to give my grandma a call and she always does know the right thing to say or other terms write.
