Our home is inhabited by a bookworm ... a 7-year-old boy whose reading has skyrocketed in the last month. We started reading the first Harry Potter book to the boys at bedtime. Then Luke started reading it with our help. And in the last few weeks, Luke has been reading on his own whenever he has some spare time. The book accompanies him at school and in the car, and he even tried to bring the book into the grocery store one day (guess he thought shopping would be boring so he'd just read instead.) It is truly AMAZING to watch the love for reading click in his young mind! After 309 pages, Luke completed his first major book today -- Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. Way to go! Good thing we have the 2nd Harry Potter book in the Leahy Library...
