weird choice but dad offered it to me in August 1991 as me and the elder have been circumcised:

 

 

the 1st serious one apart from dabbling into habo IT book back in around 1990 (was curious, she brought me to the bank: this child is a prodigy lol) or our mini lib, children storybooks, arabic items etc was this (shocking read, went for the part 2, both "borrowed" from the elder she maternal cousin lol):

Godfather, Mario Puzo, under the covers - went to a Fundamentalist Xtian school (don't get any ideas, I ain't one) and it was banned coz it had some racy parts, the school chaplain did not consider it a "wholesome read"...remember the wedding scene where a certain someone goes upstairs for some serious business...Ok am exaggerating, but your parents would be called and all for reading such naughty books...

i think it was Aladdin and one of his adventures but the first proper book i read was called mercedes ice. i didn't get into reading until 18ish. i love biographies of dictators and political leaders. whilst in uni i developed a taste for reading abstract theories and stuff lol.

 

 

 

my old bookshelf. they've probably burnt it by now LOL

I loved Aladdin and the Arabian tales. I particularly enjoyed stories of 'Sinbad The Sailor'.

Xasuustayda markaan ku noqdo waxaan is leeyahay Kitaabka qur'aanka ayaa iigu horreeyey. Alxamdulillaah anigu kaam qaxooti kuma dhalan amase iskama dhigayo inaan ku dhashay.

[nuune]

Kaam qaxooti inaad soo hadal qaadaba ma ahan maadaama aan isla nahey circa early 1973gii dhallinyaradii loogu direy baadiyaha iyo tuulooyinka si ay u baraan Afka Soomaaliga muwaadiniintii u gaajeysnaa Afkooda qoristiisa iyo akhrintiisaba, kolleey meela fog lagaama tuurin sideyda oo kale,it was such an experience though.

Apart from comics and fairy tales - the story that made a profound impact as a reader of 10 was Anne Frank's diary - I even remember where I was sitting that day - I loved books as a child, so cant really pin point my first book...I was reading all the time.
