[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Starts at home, well before school. Parents either invest the time or they don't. [/quote] I feel like this is it. A love for books and reading was instilled in me from earliest childhood by daily storytime with one or both parents, leading to early reading which was strongly encouraged by way of regular trips to library and bookstore. There is nothing in modern life that prevents this approach but more parents these days are addicted to their phones and giving phones to their kids earlier and earlier to keep them placated. I’m every day incredibly grateful for a childhood that happened before the internet and mobile phones and social media and hundreds of TV channels. [/quote]
