My first recollection of a book or at least one I was interested in, it was of a story book about how it is being a firefighter and watching them. -
In kindergarten everytime at library I picked up "Piggy Elephant" which introduced me to similar cute books like if you give a mouse a cookie and pigeon book. These books are so sweet and at the time I felt so smart saying my favorite author was Mo Willems since he produced all those books (besides the mouse one). -
During this time I was reading books which either talked about human anatomy, animal facts, or wordly facts. These taught me I could learn more about our world by reading. -
I became a huge fan of this book series and its style, it taught me action packed adventures while following a story which needs some background knowledge -
This book took me away from the usual picture books I was used to and I began reading chapter books and following a more complicated story. -
This was a huge revelation finding out books have movies and movies come from books. I learned to see different viewpoints of how books are interpreted from how I interpret them. It made me more interested in reading the books that had movies about them! -
I can not for the life of me find the reading but it showed me text can have historical context and books don't always have to be fiction readings. -
This book introduced me to real life events that happen but making it a fictitious story. -
During this time it was COVID lockdown and in my 10th grade english class we were reading a lot of poems. During this time I realized I don't really like poems because they don't understand maybe I can give it a try again but for now I steer clear of them. -
In 12th grade I read Macbeth for the first time surrounded by a bunch of gothic/dark themed novels which was interesting to see how the theme of a story changes it and makes it just that certain type of theme (Dark, eerie, some fiction themes but also being inspired by real life settings etc.
