Story for children

Yes, my mother used to read to me when I was a child. She read to me some illustrated bible stories. I'm not sure if that is what started my love for reading, but I"m grateful to her for teaching me how to read. I have been an avid reader since I was a child, and though I don't have kids, I love sharing books with other people and encouraging everybody I know to discover the pleasures of a good book.

I don't have a good memory and I can't remember all these stories. Perhaps my parents seldom told stories when I am a kid and they cared my in their own way. But now I can listen my father telling stories to my sister's kid every night. They are about some animals and quite interesting. The kid has cultivated a good habit of reading books every day.

I remember nursery rhymes.. but one story I remember my mother reading to me, and can't find it anywhere, is called..Little one-eye, little two-eyes, little-three eye. I'll never forget that.. (I miss my mother) but the story or any other when I was a child did not inspire me to read, in fact, I hated reading until really late in life.. when I was in the middle 30's I started to read books more than what I ever had before and picky on what type of stuff I read.. alot of things just don't hold my attention so I definately stear clear of many catagories.

I'm sure my parents did read to me at night time but they must have stopped at a very early age as I cannot reember either my mum or dad reading me a bedtime story. I do try to read to the children at bedtime and i really want them to remeber me reading to them.
