Why Reading Matters….

Reading is an event in the lives of all literate people. Reading covers so many things— recipes, instructions, newspapers, magazines, Facebook, blogs, history books, biographies, fairy tales, mysteries, even banned books like Catcher in the Rye or the Holy Bible— yes the Bible is banned in many parts of the world. All are a part of literate lives. It is important that children learn to appreciate all reading because reading is important to all areas of life: for learning new ideas, for skills, for guidance, in learning about mistakes of the past, for learning about nature, for inspiration, and for pleasure.
