#KidsBooks

Kids still love to curl up in someone's lap to read a book. In spite of the ebook craze, that has not changed.  Yesterday my little granddaughter came to visit. When I asked her if she would like to read a story with me, she was sitting beside me before I could finish the question. We read two wonderful stories that got her talking, wondering and speculating on the solution to the characters' problems. It was such a wonderful time for both of us.

I hope that people everywhere continue to engage children with books and to encourage them to love books. There is no experience like it. Movies and electronic devices just don't compare. It is far a completely different experience to create your own movie in your head during the reading process. Reading is an active experience while watching movies, television and other electronic media are passive activities - the viewer is just experiencing someone else's imaginings.

Go find a child and read with him or her. You will create memories together.
