I know what you mean, but once i got stuck into that book then I just wanted to carry on reading.

I was a big reader when I was little, read all the chronicles of narnia and lord of the rings when i was about 10. I think its important to read, my teachers always said I had excellent vocabulary and was intelligent because I read so much when I was young, somtimes novels that were a bit beyond me. Everyone should read to their kiddies.
