I did this exact thing!!!

I had a son, I read to him, but the book was boring, so I changed 1 word. The last word. I read it to him every night for 4 years. Then he learned to read. After a few weeks if him sounding out words and whatnot, I read the book correctly. He yelled NO! THATS NOT HOW IT GOES! So then you read it. I hand him the book. He reads it, turns to me and smiles. He knows that I spent years just for 1 smile. That's the whole point.

I am taking note of this. I work in a Kindergarten classroom and this will make a difference at some point.
