Summary

"Mom reads. Dad reads. And I read, too!" As a young boy revels in learning to read on his own, he begins to notice that reading is all around him... and not all of it is in books. There is his aunt who makes stories out of sound when she reads her sheet music. There is the tourist who reads the time on his watch while waiting for a train. There is the doctor who reads a thermometer. And the fisherman who reads the weather in the sky above him. The only ones not reading are the boy's pets -- and how silly they seem to miss out!
