I was enjoying being *read to* so much I'd not mentioned that I could do it myself.
Lots of kids resist reading on their own for that reason. I've suggested to several sets of parents that they institute a reading exchange; you read me a book and I'll read you a book. That way there's an advantage to admitting you can do it yourself instead of a loss :).
I did much better once i clued in ot the fact that if i read myself I could get lots and lots more books read without having to wait for mum to be available; the exchange idea sounds nicely sneaky though :)
