What books did your parents read to you?

Neither of my parents ever read to me. I was taken to the village library where the children’s section consisted of a small, rather musty cupboard. Fortunately I had an aunt who plied me with books.

I honestly can't actually remember my parents ever reading books to me.
If they did, I must have been under 4 years of age. They did buy me books though - I can remember looking at the pictures - ,and I could certainly read OK from the age of five. Books have always been an important part of my life

I can't remember either of my parents reading to me. I could read before I went to school, so all my memories are of me reading by myself.

I really don’t remember, only remember reading books myself.
It’s a long time ago isn’t it?
