12 years old, and I finally got my baby brother to read a book. He even picked it out himself! He hasn't left the couch in the last eight hours and has breezed through three of them in just two days. Graphic novel for the win, because he likes books with pictures. He has moved onto the Wimpy Kid books; think we can get full length novels one day? I hope so.
But for now, we are counting this as one small step for a big sister, and one giant leap for the book community.
