I Would Easily Spend a Whole Day Curled Up With a Good Book

I wanted to instill a love of books into my children. I think the first reason I loved reading as a child myself was because it was an escape from the real world, a place where time moved on far to fast for me but I could lose myself in fantasy land and be somewhere else. I always did have a vivid imagination. You can be anything you like as a kid, superhero, a mermaid, wizard. Growing up has it's advantages, but I will never forget what a joy reading gave me as a child and I hope both my children never forget either.

Well, if you make their reality unpleasant enough, they'll probably want to escape into books all the time. Not perhaps the best way, though 馃槅

I wouldn't do that. I think children have enough horrors to face without parents making life hard for them. But it seems to have paid off, they do share a love of books as well as other creativity such as drawing and painting.
