[quote=Anonymous]I read a lot when I was a kid, but I still distinctly remember my curiosity being lit when I was 11yo for SF/F just by listening to the book conversations of my parents and their friends. I cried when my older DS was diagnosed with severe dyslexia because it hurt to imagine DS not having that kind of opportunity. But now both DS's have been known to tote books around, pack them in their bags for school, and bring them on vacation. They're not the kind of books that I was reading at their age and not what I would have picked, but they're what THEY picked. The number one indicator of enjoying reading is growing up surrounded by books -- not being read to or anything else. [/quote]
