Born Bookworms

One of my favorite dreams as a kid was one in which I get locked up in a book shop.

On regular visits, I would specially get a thrill out of reading one at the shop, while selecting the ones to buy.

So what if I don’t have the time these days?

This is what a trip to a bookstore with my children looks like:





Gosh-I wonder what else gets stored and transferred through our DNA!

  4. That reminds me of my childhood! My only incentive to study was that reward in the form of books :) And for a long time, my dream job was that of a librarian. I certainly hope that DNA passes on to my daughter :) She loves books as of now. Story time is mandatory, no matter how tired both of us are:)

  5. Hi Swaram-Yes it was absolute Bliss for them-and I was sooooooo tempted to join them.

    Deeps: They never let go of oppurtunities like this. And I am really glad about it.

    Smitha-Would you believe it, these two also look forward to exams because they get books after each exam?

    I still want to be a librarian-they get all day to read and get paid for it too...

    Great-your daughter has already discovered the " joy of reading", when these kids grow up we can share their books and have even more fun :)

  7. Yeah the logistics are important-but when you are lost in a dream world, they sometimes cease to matter...
