Great idea @ljuliel!

The gift of reading was the best gift I ever got. Suddenly I could get answers to all those questions in my mind, I could learn new things, go to places all over the universe,...
I read all day, it's like breathing. I have to read for a few sentences every night, no matter how exhausted I am. I read the back of tea/cheese/... packages when there's nothing else around. Once I had to wait in the car w/o a book, so I read the 👇

julesG car's "owner's manual". I cannot go a day without reading. Honestly. I had an inflammation of my optical nerve (three times so far), each time I went blind in one eye for a few days, the doctors said I shouldn't strain the "good" eye by reading. I tried not to read, worst hour of my life. Truly. Not a joke. 4y

Deifio Thank god for audiobooks! Now if it ever happens again @julesG you can pick up an audiobook! 4y
julesG @Deifio Right. That's something to look forward to. Back when it happened, I was still very much reading physical copies only. 4y
ljuliel Jules , your comments made me happy 😊 then sad 😢. Your story about reading the car manual was funny. As for your eye issues, I‘m so sorry that happened. It must be awful , but I‘m so glad we live in a world where audiobooks are so easy to access now. They help bring reading to a lot of people who otherwise couldn‘t experience it. 4y
julesG @ljuliel Don't worry. Luckily the inflammation was spotted early on, steroid treatment took care of them, and after a few days I could see again without any problems. I still have full visibility in both eyes, although I need prescription glasses to battle my short-sightedness. 😉 4y
ljuliel That‘s good. It sounds like you‘re in excellent hands for medical issues. It helps to have a good Dr you can trust , plus medication to counteract some of your symptoms. 4y
Josilas123 Reading takes me away from this world into a different dimension and also it helped me battle some of my bad habits!!! I‘m glad you eye is in a better shape but I recommend constant checkup from hence. Thanks for the share. 4y
julesG @Josilas123 Thanks! Trust me. I'm seeing my doctors once a month. That's the (dis)advantage of having a chronic issue. 😉 4y
Josilas123 @julesG 😄 that‘s so true. You are welcome. 4y

I like the idea of this book. Because one thing happens it leads to another. That is the main concept and it all starts because Mozart wrote music. I don‘t think it is the best book of the year, but I really liked it and think it would be excellent for story time I think it might get a little boring for most kids as a nightly read.

I will read anything Mo Willems writes. So I immediately requested this from the library when I saw it was released. This is NOTHING like most of his other books. But oooooohhh.. all the feels. I was teary eyed by like the second page. So gorgeous!!! I‘m about to listen to the composition now.

ErikasMindfulShelf Looks great. Requested from library right away. 5y
