Kelsey as a reader. Kelsey learned to read as a young child before she even entered school. Her parents were always encouraging and challenging her to do the best she could, so reading was something they always encouraged. She learned to read by listening to her mother read stories, and picked up on different words.
People read for a number of different reasons. Some read for pleasure and entertainment, some use reading as an escape from the world around them, and some read purely for educational purposes. The reasons people read also depend on what they are actually reading. In order to be a good reader, you have to challenge yourself to constantly read works that are at a high level. You must also read often to improve your reading skills.
Kelsey has always found reading to be an easy and natural thing. She always read at a high level, and it was never really a struggle for her. However, one thing she did struggle with was finding books that keep her interest. She could never just pick up any old book and read it. It had to be a book that was intriguing and made her think. Kelsey often looks for books that are either similar or sequels to ones she has read in the past, or are about something completely different and interesting.
Although Kelsey enjoys reading, it is not something she usually has time for. This year, Kelsey is working on setting aside some time every week just for reading and it's enjoyment.
