My favorite book is The Wizard of Oz by L. Frank Baum. It was the first book I was able to read with my limited vision, using a closed-circuit television magnifier.

To my delight, I discovered that not only could I use it to read textbooks and fill out worksheets, but I could also read books for pleasure. So, during study periods when I had no other homework, I escaped from the stress of school to a land where I, along with Dorothy, encountered a scarecrow, a tin man, and other interesting characters.
