Read the excerpt.
Reading and writing, like any other crafts, come to the
mind slowly, in pieces. But for me, as an E.S.L. student
from a family of illiterate rice farmers, who saw reading
as snobby, or worse, the experience of working through a
book, even one as simple as "Where the Wild Things
Are," was akin to standing in quicksand, your loved ones
corralled at its safe edges, their arms folded in suspicion
and doubt as you sink.
