Please Don't Hate Me Because I Love to Read
Part 4
by Nancy R. Fenn

Another woman, a teacher replied, "Yes, [someone read] to me until I could read myself. My tutoring students read aloud. I read aloud to myself in Latin and in English if it's something written before 1750 or so. Latin literature can't be rightly appreciated any other way. English literature was also designed to be read aloud until the Modern Era."

Some families bond by reading aloud to each other. "[I read aloud] all the time," said a recent college grad. "It's the main way my family bonds; my sister and I still read together sometimes even though we're in our twenties." And another student mentions, "My mom and I still sometimes read aloud to each other."

What were some of their favorite books as children? "Anne of Green Gables" is the most frequently mentioned book. The "Little House" series by Laura Ingalls Wilder scored high as did "The Chronicles of Narnia". Roald Dahl was a popular author. "The Secret Garden" was another frequently mentioned book. Things haven't changed too much. Nowadays they prefer to read these same books to their young friends with the addition of Harry Potter and "The Hobbit".

One thing that amazed me as an introvert is how many mentioned being persecuted as children for reading "too much". Prince Trae remarks, "I remember one summer (7th grade?) where I spent most of the summer reading. My mother was always trying to get me to go outside, get my head out of the books, and play like the rest of the kids."

Another middle aged woman remembers, "At a grown-up party, for example, [my parents would say] "There's a girl from your class ... go and play with her." [This] only made me want to reply, "Yes, I recognized her thank you. I see her every day and I'd rather go sit in the car and read ... because if I was social, if I wanted to socialize, I would have run up to the other child and said 'let's play'! Duh."

Reading is the #1 favorite activity of most introverts (there are eight different types). For a great reading list that will raise your introverted child's self esteem, visit "11 Books that will Raise Their Self Esteem".

These books have introverted children as the main characters. They will find their worldview supported and enhanced with these books. I have also prepared an extended Listmania list through amazon.com with 14 books your child may enjoy very much.

Introverts as a whole make up less than 30% of the population but as IQ rises, so does the percentage of introverts. As you can see, introverts make contributions to the world far in excess of their numbers.

I have prepared a list of books which have a main character who is an introvert to help you understand introverted characteristics in action.

I also have a list of children's books that treat the nature of introversion sensitively.
