About meOur son Rory is two years old and has been read to since before he was born. He is extremely enthusiastic about books, which I encourage wholeheartedly as a librarian, teacher and book addict! I love reading children's and YA literature too, and there are so many fantastic authors and books I'm looking forward to introducing him to.
