Nephtys80 replied to Ogre's discussion That One Special Book..."Honestly, I can't remember a time when I didn't love books. My parents read to me from a very young age, first picture books, but they switched to C.S. Lewis and Tolkien when I was about 4, I think. That was also when they taught me to…"
Malene replied to Ogre's discussion That One Special Book..."I had to learn to read effectively in english first and that didn't happen untill when I was around 16 or 17. Until then I had read translations of foreign books but it's never quite the same.
I picked up a book at my library for a school…"
Jade replied to Ogre's discussion That One Special Book..."Those books were brilliant! I read the first one in fourth grade, but you know how it is with reading; other books came up and I got distracted from the series, but I finished it up the summer before ninth grade. It's amazing how a story I…"
Jade replied to Ogre's discussion That One Special Book..."Carrie's War by Nina Bawden.
At first it seems like a children's book, but it has deeper messages hidden in the story, and I never get tired of rereading it. There's just something enchanting about the story. I would highly recommend…"
Deanna replied to Ogre's discussion That One Special Book..."Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone.

Walk Two Moons I read when I was ten, and then re-read shortly after my dad died when I was twelve. It…"
Nicole Carey replied to Ogre's discussion That One Special Book..."I hated books and I pretty much couldn't read 7th grade.

Minikimii replied to Ogre's discussion That One Special Book..."I'm pretty sure it was one of the Mandarin Chinese children's books from when I was a kid. I don't really ever remember a time when I WASN'T reading, and those picture-ish books are the earliest memory I can think of related to…"
Joe Belzberg replied to Ogre's discussion That One Special Book..."I was really into the Animorphs series in third grade, I think it was the first thing I was ever really obsessed with.
