I remember when I learned how to read in kindergarten - I decided that I was going to read the whole Bible that night. This new "power" was awesome! (I made it to chapter 5 in Genesis that night, skipping over a few of the names.)
Children's books I discovered and read over and over were Heidi, Old Yeller, and the Little House series.

The one I remember best is
"I like the fall the mist and all"
That was the first time I remember reading something and realizing that words can be simply beautiful.
I have not stopped reading since.
