    When Lucy stepped through the wardrobe and into Narnia, it changed my life. It was the moment I realized that as difficult as things may seem there is the possibility of magic and something bigger just beyond the door. My life changed at that moment. I had found freedom to be the little girl I was, if only in my imagination. It was more than I had ever known. Screaming and fighting always seemed to be going on at my house. My dad was a heroin addict and Mom was a rage addict. Everyday there…

There were many books my family used to read to me, and I believe that is what started my interest in reading. I have always been a shy person, but a reading…

    Overall, I really enjoyed the Merritt Tierce reading. Unlike David Trinidad, I felt that her reading the book actually helped add to it in a way that made me enjoy her book for once.

I really liked how since she was the author she was able to read it in the way that it is supposed to be read; pausing at…
