I am LD as well. <br /><br />I wish I could point to some particular book that was a break though book for me. Books were the one thing my parents would buy me whenever I asked, but instead of reading lots of books, I picked out books and got my "gifted" little sister to read them. By the time she was 8 she had read most of the Classics-- I have no idea how much she acutally understood, but I would hear of a classic novel on Jeopardy or something and then find it in the bookstore and convince her to convince our parents to buy it for her, and then she'd actually read it.<br /><br />Sadly, I didn't start reading for entertainment purposes until I was in college (and long after I was reading beyond grade level- God Bless my LD Teachers, if only they could see me now). <br /><br />So glad you and Jeff found out how special books are early. Although now I'm terribly curious about what your break-through book was.
