Kevin’s book
Kevin looked like every other kid in the first - grade classroom where I volunteered as the Reading Mom. However, Kevin was different from his classmates in other ways. He had a speech problem so he couldn’t 16 like other kids in his grade.
I worked with all the students in Kevin’s class one by one to improve their reading skills. On the days when it was Kevin’s 17 , I’d give him a silent smile, and he’d fly out of his chair. He sat very close to me and opened the book as if he was opening a treasure nobody had ever seen.
I watched his 18 move slowly under each letter as he struggled (努力) to read out. Every time he 19 to read a word with a strange pronunciation, the biggest smile would spread across his face and his eyes would shine with 20 . It broke my heart each and every time.
A few weeks 21 the school year ended, I held an awards ceremony (颁奖典礼). I 22 Kevin with a book — one of those Little Golden Books that only cost 5. Tears ran down his face as he held the book close to him and went 23 to his seat. I stayed with the class for the rest of the day. Kevin never let go of (放开) the 24 , not once. It never left his hands.
A few days later, I returned to the school to visit. I 25 Kevin on a chair near the playground, the book open in his lap. His teacher said, “He hasn’t put that book down since you gave it to him. Do you know that’s the 26 book he’s ever actually owned?”
Keeping back my tears, I walked towards Kevin, placed my hand on his shoulder and asked, “Will you read me your book, Kevin?” And then, for the next few minutes, he read to me more 27 than I’d ever thought possible from him. The pages were already dog - eared (卷角的), like the book had been read thousands of 28 already. When he finished reading, Kevin closed his book and said with great satisfaction (满意), “ 29 book!”
What a powerful contribution the writer of that Little Golden Book had made in the life of a disadvantaged child! At that moment, I knew I would become 30 about my own writing and do what that writer had done, and probably still does — to care enough to write a story that changes a child’s life, to care enough to make a difference.
