My eldest just loved books too. Every night I'd read to her and once see started talking she'd recite the books as I turned the pages. If she forgot whey came next, I'd read the first word on the page out for her and off she'd go again. Her favourites were the Meg and Mog stories. I remember her going quiet as she went through her books at the side of the couch, one day, and looked over to see her fast asleep on her pile of books.

My second only liked bedtime stories, rarely being read to in the day. She had to much else to do!
