“For me to read a book is stillAnd always will be quite a thrill.For me to read a book is likeA boy when he rides his new two wheel bike.And when a bird comes north in springIt's natural for her to sing.I like to read books of poems and historyBooks of fiction and of mystery.And what is more, I'll read until I'm grownAnd then I'll write books of my own.”
