“When growing up did your family share your love of books? If so, did one person
get you into reading? And, do you have any family-oriented memories with books
and reading? (Family trips to bookstore, reading the same book as a sibling or
parent, etc.)”
My mom is/was a book lover although not quite as much as I am. My dad barely ever read and it was mostly magazines or schematics. He has read only a few books since I was born 24 years ago. My brother is more of a reader now than he used to be. He was/is more of a TV/Movie guy.
In late grade school I entered a contest and won a book full of mother and daughter stories. My mom and I started a tradition where every Mother’s Day we sat together and read one of the stories aloud. We took turns reading. It was a wonderful tradition.
