Uh-huh. I even started out second grade not being able to read at all, due to rather sketchy and disjointed education up until that point. By the time I got out of second grade, however, I was mind-numbedly bored by how slowly and poorly the rest of the class read.
I did get my own back eventually, though. My French teacher once caught me reading under the desk in class... and was all set to blow up at me until I held up the book. It was L'Etranger. In French. And not assigned reading for two more years. Take that, evil Grownups!
your entry title For The Win!!!
