| Book Blogger Hop: August 16-22, 2013
Were you a born bookworm or did somebody get you into the habit of reading?
My mother is responsible for making me the reader that I am today. She took me to the library when I was a child, and she read to me at night. I have wonderful memories associated with reading with my mother. She also made sure to enroll me in the Scholastic Books Summer Reading Program, which sent a book each week in the mail over the summer break. Now that I am a mother, I, in turn, am trying to do the same for my children. Thank you Mom! I'll add many times in my life, books have been better friends than real people.

I was a born bookworm, and my mom also signed me up for a program that sent a book a week (although I don't think it was just over the summer). I still remember how exciting it was to get those books! :)
ReplyDeleteMothers are the best teacher and have the most influence. I know it works because I took my son to the library and to story hour and read constantly to him. It works. Keep up the good work, Mom. :)
ReplyDeleteHave a great day!!
Happy Hopping!!

What a wonderful mother and what a one you are in your turn. I wish every child had such a mother. As a teacher I know it makes the difference.
ReplyDeleteI think it is awesome when moms try to encourage their children to read! I have a 14 month old and it does me good to see her enjoying her little board books. :)
ReplyDeleteMy answer to the blog hop.
My dad was the big reader in our family and did the weekly trip to the library with us!
