Fatu read her first book

Fatu who is four years and ten months old, just read her first book from cover to cover. The book, titled "Thanksgiving Mice" is about 300 to 350 words written by Bethany Roberts and illustrated by Doug Cushman.

Thanksgiving Mice is about the discovery of America surrounding the first settler that arrived here and the problems they encountered.

Since she learned to read she has been making the round, by running to every visitors that "I can read, I can read." She has also been collecting $10.00 and $5.00 and others with more gift of books from visitors who have tipped her as an encouragement.

Ironically, her younger sister Miah, 3, is insisting that i have to teach her how to read as well, even though she hasn't written her first letter.

Fatu is mid way into her second book, "At the End of the Rainbow" which is more worded than "Thanksgiving Mice". This is a story about the value of treasure.

Of course, she starts school in about 35 days at the St. Mark's Catholic School in Bristol.

Thanks for your comments and i will keep you guys posted.
Based on the success and the enthusiasm of "Thanksgiving Mice", she begin reading her second book "At the End of the Rainbow."
