Yes, but nobody believed that I really could because I held the book upside down. I was in eleventh grade before I got tested for Dyslexia. I learned to read upside down because that's how I saw the books when people read to me. I continued to do that well into fourth grade, and then I just turned the book over for some reason and I could still read it. I still read by the line however, not the individual word, and I have to go back and correct half the words when I write something. Makes for very challenging postings sometimes.

Yes, reading is leisure till today! I love reading romantic novels and Biblical based books. I recommend Kaleidoscope by Danielle Steele and The Mark of the Lion Series (trilogy: A Voice in the Wind, An Echo in the Darkness, As Sure as Dawn)by Francine Rivers. I hope you get to read them! Happy Reading!

I am a lady of 65 years old, and when I was a child you went to School, to do whatever you wanted to do there, in those days Teachers did not care if you learned or not, but, I had always wanted to learn what other nations did especially their customs, so I started to make myself learn how to read, and in my hometown, here in Texas, people usually spoke Spanish, so, I even learned how to read and write spanish. From then on I have always liked to read and I am a good speller too, even won first place in the National spelling Bee, in those days.

Yes. I loved to read. I loved adventure books like Huck Finn/Tom Sawyer, Streams to the River, River to the Sea, or The Mixed-up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler.
I still love to read and now I read books like Standing in the Rainbow, Roots, and Cry of the Peacock.

I loved to read when I was a child. I had such a vivid imagination, that real life didn't really cut it for me, so turning to books helped me to expand it. I remember being excited over my mother purchasing a brand new Berenstein Bears or Dr. Seuss book. I would just admire the shiny new cover and smell the, "brand-new-book" smell. Then I would just dig in to the book! As I got older, I got in to thrillers and historical adaptations such as, "The Face in the Milk Carton" series and "So Far From the Bamboo Grove." I still love to read! I just finished reading, "Fabulosity," by Kimora Lee Simmons and I am looking forward to reading Russell Simmons' "Do You!"

I loved books when I was really young and my parents read to me. Then, unfortunately, I began to hate reading around 2nd grade because of school. I didn't read anything for pleasure until the 10th grade. That's so sad. I love reading now, and I'm upset about all of the great books I missed when I was a kid. But school just made reading so horrible for me.

I loved to read when i was a child. My younger siblings though don't like to as much. My nickname when i was a kid was bookworm because i read a book every week. The ironic thing though was that i loved math class the most, not reading. My friends thought that was messed up!

Anything I could get my hands on. I liked Nancy Drew alot. Now I like Agatha Christie.
I used to take a book and read it from the streetlight shining by my bedroom window when I was supposed to be in bed.

I did like to read and I remember a book put out by Reader's Digest that had all kinds of stories in it. One about Wilma Rudolph who overcame polio (I think) to become a world-class runner. I also remember a brain teaser. It showed a multi-line paragraph and you had to guess what was unique about it. Turns out it did not contain an "e".
