"READING IS FUNDAMENTAL"
I collect books and read them to open my mind, hopefully I will in
time. To feel my brain working and learning words to explain a person's
mind. Learning everything I can to help me with my life.
You see reading is important for a young person like me, To keep
talking to defend myself. So I will keep reading to keep me free,
In a world where we all have a future,
And Freedom of
Speech............
