I never got to read in the car because of motion sickness (but I always had
a window seat, eh?). I never had a room of my own until I moved out from
home. But reading was a big thing when I grew up and Christmas and birthday
presents were always books. _A Wrinkle in Time_ is the first book I read
that I can actually remember the title of and I can hardly wait until my
kids read English well enough (they go to French school here and start
reading English in Grade 4) so I can give it to them. As for the other
three books, I'll have to look them up.
