I don't remember learning to read; I know that it was before I started school.
My mother gave me her Enid Blyton books and her entire Companion Library collection, and it was those that really gave me the love of reading. The CL copy of Little Women/Little Men is now sadly in a very poor state, missing it's spine etc., and I still refuse to give away the Enid Blyton books, despite the fact that I know them backwards, and am probably just a little too old for them now!
I very quickly cleared the entire school library, and got so excited whenever we got to go to the "proper" library!
