Sitting on Mom’s lap with a favorite picture book. Bedtime stories with Dad. Trips to the school library, where the librarian read stacks of new stories each week. We all have favorite memories tied to the books we loved as children, and the parents, grandparents, siblings, teachers and librarians who read the books to us. Those moments with good books have shaped our lives. Chances are, we still have an image, a phrase, or even a smell that will transport us back to those moments in a heartbeat. Celebrate with us on the Twitter hashtag #GSRtM and here!
