What did you read when you were little?

Welcome to the General Discussion area where just about anything goes! This area is designed to discuss all matters and does not necessarily have to be Transformers related. Please keep topics relevant.

It's a good weapon, but against a single enemy it's both overkill, and a waste of ammo you could us on larger groups.

I've been anting to make that joke for years.

I hated reading when I was little book reports killed me.

I credit my now awesome reading skills (no joke there I have finished reading 22 books in three months) to two things.

a) Comic books
G.I. Joe, Transformers, Star Trek and Star Wars comics made reading easier for me, somehow reading pictures with word balloons was less threatening to me than novels, and it gave me a jumping on point for books.

I would later using the same process with my niece, who as a young kid that couldn't yet read loved Josie and the Pussycats: The movie, we started buying Archie comics together at first me reading to her, until she learned to read them herself, now she reads novels big one like the Harry Potter books by herself in days and she's 12.

b) Finding a topic I love to know more about.
Hey in the 80's and 90's Star Trek books were plentiful, I eventually moved on to Star Wars, James Bond, and Stephen King.

I still read alot of these things, in the last 3 months I read...

Wait until you get farther into the LotF books. They only get better...And more brutal. Approaching storm is boring from beginning to end sadly. Was not impressed by that one. Never read I,Jedi or the Medstar books though. Wasn't a fan of Bariss and Luminara.

When I was real young the Berenstein Bears were big for me. I honestly don't remember what the first novel was that I read though.
