The Island of Lost Children | Kim Batchelor

My December column in Paris Life, out today, reminding grownups to give children the gift of reading. What is your favorite childhood reading memory? #giftofreading

TrishB My Dad taught me to read before I started school as I was always trying to read the newspapers with him! The school said it was very unhelpful and I had been taught wrongly!! I still buy books as gifts for everyone 😀 7y

Sydsavvy @TrishB really!!! How presumptuous of them! I guess that's kind of like common core math today. 🤔 So very cool that he taught you to read! 7y

MyNamesParadise My momma would read to me every night & take me to the library. My dad would always take me to Barnes & Noble. To this day he still will take me and usually he buys me whatever I want- but he prefers to get me nonfiction bc that's all he will read. I was the kid that would take a book to recess & the monitors would make socialize 🙄 the worst 😜😜 7y

Sydsavvy @MyNamesParadise that's an awesome story!!! I guess the library and B&N made up for bad monitors? 🤓 7y

lynneamch I fondly recall walking about a half mile with my mom on Saturdays to visit the bookmobile. Favorite memory, though, is during my daughter's childhood. She picked up a can of hot fudge ice cream topping and read "Place in pan of hot water for 5 minutes." She wasn't even 3 yet and I was totally shocked that she could actually read. ? 7y

Sydsavvy @lynneamch goodness! That is amazing! 7y
