I love the outdoors because I love books.
I love books because a long time ago, I was a preschooler and it was naptime and I couldn't sleep.
I loved books then because they are quiet and easy to hide from the teachers who would take it and leave me bored.
And because I read an extra hour or more a day for 5 days a week my reading level improved dramatically.
Reading grew from a way to stave off boredom to a fun activity.
Soon I was reading on the walk to school and between classes and whenever I had finished all the work.
3rd grade I read every book in the classroom
4th grade I read every book in the 5th grade classroom
I believe in dragons because those books taught me the world is a magical place, with adventure everywhere.
And I know there were dragons when hiccup was a boy.
I truly believe one of these days I'll spot a wizard or a unicorn out in the woods.
