QUESTION
You are 11 years old. Tell us which was the first book that you read that fascinated you and why?
ANSWER
My mother used to narrate to me fairy tales, saint stories and moral stories of different cultures. When I started reading myself, I read those books along with Panchatantra and stories by Enid Blyton. I was fascinated to read the stories which my mother had told me as I really liked them. Since I already knew the stories, thus learning to read- became comparatively an easier task.
