The funniest one I received was this. "On the North Rim of the Grand Canyon. Why look at it when you can read about it?" That's a pretty typical introvert response.

One of the very nicest things you can do for your introverted child is to let them read. And by that I mean, let them have their nose constantly in a book. Let them walk in the house after school, go to their room, close the door and read. Let them hold a flashlight under the covers at night and read. This is by far the favored activity reported by all the adult introverts I've interviewed.

Most of them report that they can't remember a time when they didn't read and most of them estimate they have read "thousands" of books in their lives, some as many as 15,000. They also like to reread books several times a year if they like them.

When asked specifically how they learned to read, many said their mother or grandmother taught them. A surprising number mention learning at the age of two or "always knowing how to read". Here are some responses:

• I simply absorbed it. There was never a need to be formally taught.

• [I learned to read] very young. The family myth is I was 2 years old. I've always known how to read. So has my daughter. In the genes.

• My sister taught me when I was about 2 and she was about 7.

• [I learned in] school? I don't remember not being able to.

• According to my mother I made her teach me and could read and comprehend when I was 2.

• I seem to have picked it up on my own. The first word I learned to read was "Maytag", from my Mom's wringer washer. I went from there to canned food labels at the supermarket and billboards along US1.

• I honestly don't remember. It feels as if I have always been reading

• Can't remember not being able to read.

• I learned by looking at the words while my parents read to me. They claim I could read at the age of 2.

• Don't know -- was born reading.

• My mom read to me when I was little, and I learned that way. I was never really 'taught' how to read. I just picked it up.

• My mom and dad are both teachers, and from the time I was about 3, they'd listen to me sound out words while they got ready for work.

• My sister taught me the alphabet and how to spell a few words before I started kindergarten. My mom read to me a lot so by the time I started school, I could read a little. By third grade, I was reading almost constantly.

• My aunt taught me at home before school started (now it would be preschool) so I was really excited to get to first grade and see the alphabet letters on the ceiling around the room and to sit in the reading circle.

• I had a slow start. I couldn't get the hang of it in kindergarten, but that summer I decided that my family needed to read the Bible through in a year. I decided to sound out entire chapters of Leviticus. It nearly drove my parents crazy, but by the end of the summer I could read.

• Don't remember learning at all so I must have learned at home before I went to school.

• i could make it through two Nancy Drews and the like a day by the time I was in second grade. I read Gone with the Wind for the first time in third grade and it took me all of three days.
