As a young boy reading was never an exciting activity for me. Since the first day I began reading proficiently in the first grade all the way through high school‚ reading was always a chore. Novel after novel we read in class in which I found myself dozing off into the distance dreaming about everything but reading. The only books I’ve ever enjoyed to this day continue to be Magic Tree House‚ but after 3rd grade the story line begins to repeat and mock the others‚ kind of like a Capri sun after drinking
