The story is that my older sister and I learned to read at roughly the same time, so I'd have been about 1 1/2 or thereabouts. Apparently I circled all the words that I understood in some of her books and she got mad at me for that. I was much sneakier after that--I always rewound her Hooked on Phonics tapes. I don't remember any of it, but I have seen the books with all the badly-made circles.

I was reading properly by kindergarten, but I don't know when I made the switch from fake baby reading to real reading.

Around two or three. The first book I ever read was Ten Apples Up On Top by Dr. Seuss; I started reading it out loud and my mom was like :O OMG SHE'S READING!

I taught myself (probably from TV shows where the words appear on tbhe screen) when I was 3, and then in 1st grade (5 yrs) I was reading at a 10th grade level. It may be hard to believe, but my mom says it's true.....

I was reading straight out of the womb. Yup, I popped out, got cleaned up and then delved straight into the works of Wordsworth and Shakespeare.

I think I was 4 when I started being able to read out of the Mother Goose nursery rhyme book that my mother always read to me. Either that, or I had just memorized most of the rhymes from them being read to me so many times, haha. I can't really remember anything before that.

I was probably reading around 3 or 4. I was definitely competent by the time I started school.

My youngest sister was a bit of a concern for my mom; I'm the oldest of five, and all of us started reading quite a bit before kindergarten, but she was nearly ready to start school and still couldn't read. One day, however, my mom came across her sitting in a corner reading perfectly fine on her own. When she asked my little sister how long she'd been able to read, she responded with, "Oh, a long time now...but I was afraid that if you knew, you'd stop reading to me!"

Depends on what language. :P
I started reading English when I was like 4? I started reading Chinese when I was like 3.5?
I remember my father forcing me to read and scolding me and I was crying. :P

I would have been about 3, maybe 4. I know I taught myself and it was found out when I read to my sister. I started getting really serious about reading when I was in the first grade so I was 6.

I'm not sure when I started reading by myself. My mom read to me since I was a teensy baby, and I think I just started picking it up over her shoulder. I know I was picking out library books and reading them on the way home when I was six, so it had to be before that.

I started learning to read when I was 4 but couldn't actually read until I was 7. Of course it didn't help that the only books I ever picked up were picture books :D
My teacher noticed and assigned me special books from our class bookcase but I always managed to sneak off with the picture books. :P

My mom always tells me about when I went in for Kindergarten screening. The lady asked me if I knew how to read, and when I said yes, she put one of those "See Jane" books on the table and said "Read what's on the table for me". I, being an almost kindergartner, didn't understand her directions and started reading her screening directions sheet out loud to her...

"Step one: Be sure that you have the correct name and address for each child..."

My mom read to me 2-3 times EVERY day, so I learned pretty early. :)
