About me and why I decided to make this blog

                 My name is Frances Baron. I am a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints and absolutely love the church and the joy it brings to me. When I was young and in the first grade I was slowly learning to read... however, my entire class got crippled in many ways when we went to second grade. They moved us from phonics to a whole reading language without doing a proper transfer. Since then things have improved drastically! I am no longer inhibited by those old reading habits. What happened? Well, my parents took an interest and so did I. I read the Book of Mormon with my parents and my reading slowly began to improve. In school I read books because I had to, but I never really discovered the joy in reading until jr. high, but it still wasn't enough. When I finally got to college I discovered how much the books I read could take me to another world and away from many of the problems of this world. It would put me seeing life through another's eyes and I truly began to love it! I then discovered how much I wanted to help young children and many others find the joy in reading that I began to discover at an older age! I'm grateful to my sister's especially for helping me discover why books are so important! Also, to my mother's family... they are ones that never throw a book away! It's amazing to me how many copies of a book there were in their house. So, after all the thinking... I decided to make a blog about my view on books! I've read so many and have many more to read in my life! I hope the reviews I post will interest others in these books too! In conclusion, books are amazing to me and I hope all will find the joy that I have come to find in them too!
