I have dyslexia so it makes reading and writing as hard as counting every raindrop in a storm for me. I mix up the letters. in 7th grade mrs ward used to help me with Diary of a Wimpy kid and other work she would correct me and let me pick the books I wanted I loved Diary of a Wimpy kid because it's hilarious one of my fifth grade teachers didn’t understand they would try to make me read harder books they made me really mad and stressed my fourth grade teacher was thoughtful, friendly, generous she didn’t throw work at us every day I had more time to do my work and it didn’t stress me out we were reading chapter books and that was harder but the teacher would help me with words. I remember in Mrs Sunram reading books out loud to us I really paid attention because she read books I was interested in I felt sad when I didn’t get reading as much as the other kids before third grade I noticed other kids could write so the teacher knew what they meant and I couldn’t no one could help me because I didn't even know I had a problem it seemed like I was in a hall of mirrors. It felt like everyone in class cud read but the only one who couldn’t. My mom used to read to me starting when I was a baby we read at bedtime I liked that because she was spending time with me and I loved the stories. Reading challenged me still but it's getting easier all the time I only like certain books though especially funny comic books like The Simpsons, Futurama and Family guy I May never be the best reader but it is getting easier for me as I get older I’ll just keep trying to get better …show more content…

By far my favorite book that she would read to me was “Where The Wild Things Are”. I loved the way the booked looked with the faded looking colors that made it look old and I loved the pictures of the wild things and how the kid was the king and everyone listened to him and I just loved it.…

    Throughout High school and Middle school I always preferred writing to sitting down and reading a book. Elementary school was a time of exploring both reading and writing so at that point in time I did a lot of both. When I was younger I enjoyed reading for the images on the pages and also the ones that were created in my head. My mother, Lisa, and father, Mark, would take turns reading bedtime stories to my sister, Amanda, and me to expose us to new language and literature. Sometimes Amanda and I would read the stories to each other too so that we could learn to read ourselves.…

Here is where one of my favorite teachers comes in, she was my third grade teacher Mrs. Taylor. Mrs. Taylor really encouraged my reading, she would always recommend great books to me such as “The Tail of Despereaux”, and the “Gregor the Overlander” series.…
