[quote=Anonymous]I come from a family of people most of whom like or liked to read. We’re capable of reading long, fairly complex books. We are ordinary people otherwise, no one is particularly rich or successful, although my sibling and I made a quantum leap via immigration. Now my 14 year old son is reading good books by his own volition and someone recently commented how unusual it is. However one of the most voracious readers in the family, my father, is also one of the most "spaced ouf", maladjusted people in the family, the absent minded professor type and my son resembles him in a lot of ways. So why is it good to be a reader? Is it just good in and of itself or can it bring other benefits? [/quote]
