Question of the Week - Question of the Week #51: What are you thankful for?

I'm thankful for Jack Spratt, Dr. Seuss & the Little Golden Books - these were my first experience with the magic of books and creative imagination. My Mother read to me everyday and this instilled in me a love of reading that has grown with me through the years. There are so many books that have touched me at various times in my life it's impossible to list them all - I'll just say that I am thankful to live in a place where I can choose what I want to read from a vast array of different styles, covering every conceivable subject.
