In a recent letter to Dear Abby, a reader asked her to once again highlight the joys of reading. Here is her reply: "Dear Ray and Dear Students: For anyone who doesn't already know, books are magic! Crack open a book and you will be instantly transported into the past, propelled into the future - or if you choose - escape into a world of fantasy. The options are endless. But while history, science fiction, mysteries and romance provide a wealth of diversion, reading provides more than an escape. The greatest ideas of our most gifted thinkers lies between covers of books waiting for you to discover them. And don't be put off if books are labeled "classics." That word means only that they have been enjoyed by every generation who has read them. Reading also is a vital skill. Perusing a newspaper or doing research online, in addition to expanding your mind, also can be your transport to a successful future. And there is no more effective way to learn to write than by reading. P.S. If this skill does not come easily for you, remember libraries offer classes in literacy. There is no shame in needing extra help in learning to read, regardless of your age. The only shame is in not admitting it so you can get the help you need." |
