[quote=Anonymous]I've read studies that show homes with books promote and encourage readers. As a kid when I'd get really bored I'd grab a book from our bookcase (that nobody every seemed to read) and read it-crazy books way above my level and understanding but I developed a love of reading. Once I was at my grandmother's house and started reading a Danielle Steels book and I was maybe 9 or 10? My grandmother ran to my mother appalled and my mother exclaimed 1. She's reading 2. She doesn't understand those parts (which I didn't and I remember skipping over them) and 3. If she has questions then she'll come to me and I'll explain it (which I did and she did and that continued throughout my adult life and we are very close to this day).[/quote]
