Children Should Learn That Reading Is Pleasure,

I Think The Best Teachers Had A Real Interest In The Subject They Were Teaching And A Love For Children.

If We Finished Our Work, The Teacher Would Say, 'now Don't Read Ahead.' But Sometimes I Hid The Book I Was Reading Behind My Geography Book And Did Read Ahead. You Can Hide A Lot Behind A Geography Book.

Nothing In The Whole World Felt As Good As Being Able To Make Something From A Sudden Idea.

I Don't Necessarily Start With The Beginning Of The Book. I Just Start With The Part Of The Story That's Most Vivid In My Imagination And Work Forward And Backward From There.

We Didn't Have Television In Those Days, And Many People Didn't Even Have Radios. My Mother Would Read Aloud To My Father And Me In The Evening.
