I started having issues with school, specifically around reading and reading comprehension.

I was placed into a class at school that would pull the children who had trouble with reading comprehension and give them tools to help them with reading.

This book fair sparked an interest in reading for me. It had so many different books that I typically didn't have access to so I always looked forward to the Scholastic Book Fair!

I made a point to try to read for at least 30 minutes before I went to sleep each night.

On her list of favorite things one year, Oprah named a book written by Jay-z. He had written an autobiography and since Oprah liked it, it was obviously a good read so I picked it up and started reading for fun again.

I still have difficulty reading and retaining information. I usually have to read things 3-4 times before I move on to something else, but I'm used to it now.
