I have been an avid reader since I was four. One of my favorite places, when I was little, was the library. You can google the Clift Rodgers free library in Marshfield Hills and it looks very much the same now as it did then. Remarkably, it is one of only a few self sufficient libraries in the country. There are no computers, no internet connections and no library cards. There was one room with childrens' books. I had to get my mother to give the librarian permission for me to read books in the adult sections of the library because I had read every single childrens book they had. Needless to say, I was quite precocious and was enrolled in first grade at Sacred Heart school in Plymouth at the age of five. None of that pre-k or kindergarten stuff for me.
