[quote=Anonymous]In my memory (and I am now in my mid-40s), I woke up one morning and could read. Or more specifically, I had been read a chapter of "Charlotte's Web" the night before, and woke up in the morning and wanted the story to keep going and so picked up the book, went out to the hallway where there was a light on, and started reading. This would have been in kindergarten. Of course, it wouldn't have happened exactly that way. But I did learn to read in kindergarten, and our elementary school did not teach reading until 1st grade, so it must have been a combination of Sesame Street (which my mother always credited), being read to at home (a lot, including chapter books), and probably plenty of pre-reading activities in kindergarten and elsewhere.
