Definitely my mom! Besides reading to us herself, she provided loads of trips to the library, opportunities to buy books at school book fairs, and through Weekly Reader book orders in school, and Children's Book of the Month-type clubs. She loves to read and made sure that we had plenty of opportunities to read and buy books.
Thanks Mom!
I tried to do the same for my daughter. After years of angst over the fact that she didn't like to read, she is finally, without-a-doubt a reader! She loved to be read to and she knew how to read, but it held no interest for her, until I found the right book series! I think I read the first page and thought "this is SOOO my daughter". Apparently she thought so too!
Thank you author Megan McDonald for the Judy Moody books!
