Wanting to Read

I Just thought I would share this cute story.

This afternoon Anderson picked up this book and was looking at the cover for a long while. After some time, he started trying to open it. Because the pages are so thick, he was having a hard time getting it to open. Every time he would try to open it and it wouldn't open, he would let out a frustrated whine and then he would try again. He continued doing this for about 5 minutes. After a few times, I would open the book for him and then hand it back to him. As soon as the book was back in his hands he would close it and try to open it on his own (which would start the whole thing over again). Towards the end, we were all watching him and laughing to ourselves each time he would whine. His whine started to become a cross between a whine and a laugh when he realized we were watching him. His love for books is already starting....
