All kids can love to read!
I know many kids that love to read, but, I also know there are a great many out there, who think it is just not for them.
I've run across far too many of them - and it breaks my heart!
I think that many of these children can be shown how enjoyable reading really is. I'm not talking about 'as an assignment' - "Jimbob - go in your room right now and read three chapters!"
No, not like that!
So Jimbob loves racecars, eh? What a mountain of wonderful books we can find him on racecars!
Reading is such a wonderful, private place I go to - like sanctuary - in the Series of Unfortunate Events, right?
And it saddens me to think that someone is without that, least of all a child.
I could gab on and on about this all day - but, the main thing I would like to say on the subject is....
READING ROCKS!

I don't have kids but I think reading and having as many reading options available is very important. I'm constantly buying my nieces and nephews books and they eat them up.

Hi Lisa-Marie-Mary!
As a former kindergarten teacher I whole heartily agree. We were reading to our 3 kids while in the womb. My husband is a teacher too. The kids who love reading do better in school. Readers are leaders.
5 Stars!
