I now enjoy reading aloud new picture books in the classroom. I read a book to them everyday. Sometimes we read for enjoyment and other times I read aloud books that go with the lesson planned. I read aloud to my students everyday that if they are not read to at home; they are for sure read to in my class. I want to instill in them the love for reading. Every year I make sure I read my only favorite book as a child " Where The Wild Things Are. :)

During my college years, I enjoyed reading books from Gabriel Garcia Marquez and Isabel Allende.  These books are my favorite!  They have changed the way I think, act and feel.  These particular 2 are my favorite: Cien anos de soledad y Amore en los tiempos de colera. In reference to Isabel Allende my favorite book is titled " La Casa De Los Espiritus. During my college years I was already married and had my first son. My son's favorite book at that time was " The Little Engine That Could". He would have me read it to him over and over again. This was the time I was most exposed to reading Children's books.

As a young adult, I enjoyed reading about history.  Texas History to be exact.  I was able to check out books in the library.  I was also interested in reading "Sweet Valley High"  by Francine Pascal.  At home, my mother would continue to read her romantic novels and a novel in particular that was called "Vaqueros". What they were about - I dont know! At home, my mother would also read a weekly magazine called TV y Novelas.  She continues to read this magazine weekly.  This magazine I was allowed to read and it was about current events, tv novels that were airing at the time and mainly Mexican Artists.  These magazines were in Spanish.

As a Child I was only exposed to reading books at school.  I would see my mother read romantic novels in Spanish. The book that I remember being read-to was in second grade with my teacher Ms. Rodriguez and she read to us Where the Wild Things Are. That is the only book that I can remember being read to at my early years.
