When I first heard about it I thought it's a Haloween thingy, Turns out it's not!
Fun, meaningful celebration, hope I don't miss it out.

Jerry Pinkney is a children's books illustrator, he won so many awards on his magnificent works which I have just encountered. One of his most famous works is "The Lion & The Mouse" " which is written and illustrated by him, an admiring comment by him at the end of the book he said: "As a child I was inspired to see the majestic king of the jungle saved by the determination and hard work of a humble rodent; as an adult I've come to appreciate how both animals are equally large at heart: the courageous mouse and the lion who must rise above his beastly nature to set his small prey free." which made me more curious to purchase the book (I don't care if it's children's book, you can never be too old for this).
Atlanta's High Museum of Arts is having an Exhibition of Pinkney's work Started on October 12, 2013 to January 05, 2013.

When I first read the name of the Article, I thought that it's just an exaggeration. I love reading but I never thought that a book would've changed my life. I continued reading and Then it came to me a list of all the books I have read and how they somehow, without me realizing changed my life by shaping the way I think or how I see things. I love reading, and from this list I would have to say that I have only read "Little Women" by Louisa May Alcott. I still have the book with me, for some reason I always saw myself in Joe, a clueless tomboy whom her random behaviour gets her into trouble.
I must also add to the list, my favourite classic "Wuthering Heights" by Emily Bronte, and Mrs. Dalloway by Virginia Woolf and A million Little pieces by James Frey. are books that have always stayed with me, and one way or another I could always relate to one of the characters, and find guidance in it! (Affect)
Readers out there, share your favourite book!
