You're so right about the intimacy of this act! I have close friends with a child who I spend time with a lot and every once in a while I read to him. As I express the emotions of the book's characters to the child, I feel so conscious of my adult friends seeing me do so. It's just not something we're very well acquainted with as adults, but I love it!

It's so weird, isn't it? I feel that way when I play with my nieces and nephew too. Very shy!
