That's how I was taught to read at a very young age - my father got sick of reading the comics in the newspaper to me, so suggested I tried reading them myself! So by the age of 4 I could actually read quite well. Every adult I met would be asked to "help me with reading" until I (1) learnt to read and (2) exhausted every adult I knew!
