When I was young, maybe 5, I read The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe. Except, I for some reason thought it was two books in one and the other book was called CS Lewis. I read every other page. I think right before that I read some choose your own adventure book and it had me really confused about how books work.

It's been decades now and I don't really remember, but I've since read it properly and yeah I have no idea how I even did it. I was really just learning to read at that point, so my guess is that I could read without comprehending because it was normal for me then
