"Susan: So what I wanted to tell you is the story of literacy that I had was when I was about four or five years of my mom always read to me the three billy goats gruff. And each time she would do it, she would do all the different voices. And it would be "Who's that stepping over my bridge?" And each billy goat would then be the smallest voices to the large ones. And that it would always be a great experience, because we would sit on her lap and we would listen to it and get all the voices, and I would like to hear it over and over again. And so with that, each time I would pick different books that my mom would read to me, but always came back to that story, it always came back to the three billy goats gruff. Love that story. I think it really instilled my love of reading, just have that great experience at the very beginning, encouraged me in that way. Exactly, she brought everything to light, the characters, and having those moments with her, and she's always been instrumental in my literacy. So that's my story."
