But there was Lions at Lunchtime, several levels above what I was supposed to read. I was supposed to select from my reading level. A couple of months later, I had to pick out a take-home reading book from my teacher's learning to read shelf. That was the first chapter book I ever read on my own. It took me a long time to figure out the Jack was laughing, not "lugging." Now, what exactly does a lug sound like? And the author's name, I discovered, was not "Mary Pop."īut I did get through it. It took me an entire week of reading by lamplight. Ten chapters with a picture on each beginning page.
I liked the bright colors and surfing kids, so I had my mom buy it for me along with another Magic Tree House: Dolphins at Daybreak, which my parents helped me read. I saw it at my school's book fair in first grade and thought it was a picture book.
