You may have tangible wealth untold;
Caskets of jewels and coffers of gold.
Richer than I you can never be—
I had a mother who read to me.

So true, Elisabeth. I too had a mother who read to me from an early age. It was one of the greatest gifts she gave me. And I read to my children too and it is such a delight to see them now, reading independently and voraciously.

Beautiful. My mom read to me and I read to my daughter. I hope she carries on the tradition!
