    What books would you recommend my dad read next? Also, remember to stick around until 10:55 in the video for a mini Q&A with him!

      Well I suggest "Winger" and "Stand Off" by Andrew Smith. Can't wait to finish the lovely video.

      I think you should have your dad Recommends a book for you to read. Then when you read it, do a video discussing the book with your dad.

    OMG Thank you Zoe's Dad!!!! You don't even know - I have literally spent YEARS trying to find out the name of a book series that I started to read about 15 years ago as a young teen, but had forgotten the title of. I googled parts I remembered, I asked around on forums, and I've given up so many times. I thought I'd never get to read them again. Who would have guessed I'd be reminded randomly by watching one of your videos. It's the Dragonriders of Pern!! THANK YOU! Seriously!! I cannot wait to get these books!

    you're honestly so lucky!!

    • @xSakuraMikazukix
      @xSakuraMikazukix 7 років тому +3

      Both of my parents are big readers, so I guess I’m lucky. I actually didn’t even think about it until reading your comment, but I guess I’m lucky in a sense. They encouraged me to read from very early on, i was always read to as a child before bed and while all the other children hated library lessons - they were like a gift for me - an hour where I could read at school with nobody disturbing me? Win win!

    Loved this video, you are so fortunate to have a dad who likes reading as much as you do. I am a bit older than you (42 years old), so probably closer to your dad's age. I shared my love of reading with my mom who passed from cancer in 2005, but I treasure the memories of the books that we enjoyed together. It really is a blessing to be able to share something you love with someone you love so much.
