We Think These Are Cool
"No player in the NBA was born wanting to play basketball. The desire to play ball or to read must be planted...Shooting baskets with a child creates a basketball player; reading to a child creates a reader." -Jim Trelease
“It is not enough to simply teach children to read; we have to give them something worth reading. Something that will stretch their imaginations--something that will help them make sense of their own lives and encourage them to reach out toward people whose lives are quite different from their own.” - Katherine Patterson
"A house without books is like a room without windows...Children learn to read by being in the presence of books. The love of knowledge comes with reading and grows upon it. And the love of knowledge, in a young mind, is almost a warrant against the inferior excitement of passions and vices." -Horace Mann
