I am very sure I won't be participating in this contest if not the invite I got from a friend with the username @ijohnsen.
I say a big thank you to @BDcommunity for this contest topic tagged your favorite book from child hood
Childhood has been one fun filled age because back then all we want is nothing but food and clothes. No thoughts about life.And majority of things we do then is because our parent asked us to. What a childhood back then.
Going back to this contest topic, there are lots of books I read then, mind you. sometimes, reading books was war. That moment whereby the teacher calls you forward to read to the class again and again. There are days that I find joy doing it while there are days it goes the other way round.
One of my favorite book back then is queen premiere There are several parts of the book, we have the part I, part II, part III etc.
This book was what thought me how to spell, read and write better. I love the book a lot to the extent that I volunteer myself most times to stand in front of the class to teach others that are yet to get it right .
We then recite :
I go up
Up I go
Am I to go up
He is up
Is he to go up?Etc
All these are part of what made my childhood, you are a kid then and you do not know these? then you have been left behind.
Another favorite book of mine is without a silver spoon
I hope we all know what it means when the word silver spoon is used. That is, someone born without a family with basic necessity, a child born without riches.
The book Without a silver spoon was written by Eddie irroh okechukwu.
The story goes about a young boy that was poor and had nothing but had this zeal of going to school. For that reason he had to go be a help boy at a teacher's place, where he got to socialize and communicate with different people although he was accused of bad things he know nothing about, yet he made it through.
While reading this story then in school we learnt tolerance and pure honesty. With all what the boy in the story went through, he maintained tolerance and was honest, those are part of the things that shaped me up today.
Just imagine me without queen premier back then probably I won't have been a good reader today or probably me not emulating the message behind the story without a silver spoon, I might have been a bad influence to the society.
All these are what shaped up my childhood and made me a better person in the society today. I am using this medium to invite @bos to air his view on the contest as well.
