When should I start to read bedtime story to my son?

Hi all the moms,
When did you start to read bedtime story to your baby? My son doesn't really want to listen. He is always eager to flip the page when I am trying to read.
And just out of curiosity, do you turn the light on or just turn a little bed lamp on when you are reading?

我们家这个从小就是睡觉前必定要看书的，以前小的时候必定要读书的，每天一篇不够的。呵呵。

我家的14个月，有时候睡觉前自己拿本书，你看她翻的去说，她会有指，就告诉她是什么，编个故事，不是按字读，一本书有固定的几个图案是她喜欢的，其他也是一翻而过。

不记得从什么时候开始睡前故事了。不过刚开始时他也很急着翻书，我就告诉他妈妈不能读故事了因为你翻得太快了。then he try very hard to stop doing that.

我家亲戚 是从她孩子刚会坐就给孩子读书了.
我宝宝小时候我曾试图给他读书,发现他只喜欢咬书,就放弃给宝宝读书了.
现在16个多月了,前几周偶然有一次,我从图书馆借了几本书,都没指望给他读书,只是觉得去趟图书馆不借本书似乎白去一趟似地. 谁知道回来后他拿着书追着让我给读,一天让我读好几回. 现在看得出他很enjoy看书了.

我家老大从八九个月开始的，不过不是讲故事，是读儿歌；他很喜欢，可能因为而各有韵律，听起来想唱歌吧！

我是在女儿快10个月的时候开始，她也急着翻书，我就不断的再翻回来，直到把书读完。

thanks for sharing everyone. Recently, my son will grab my hands and point to the book and I will read out whatever he pointed out. hopefully, he will enjoy reading from now.
Also, does any one turn on the light in the bedroom when reading? Is that to distracted when I am trying to let him fall asleep on his own?
Thanks,
